If you know MRTG, you can think of RRDtool as a reimplementation of MRTGs

graphing and logging features. Magnitudes faster and more flexible than you

RRD is the Acronym for Round Robin Database. RRD is a system to store and
|
|
display time-series data (i.e. network bandwidth, machine-room temperature,
|
|
server load average). It stores the data in a very compact way that will not
|
|
expand over time, and it presents useful graphs by processing the data to
|
|
enforce a certain data density. It can be used either via simple wrapper
|
|
scripts (from shell or Perl) or via frontends that poll network devices and
|
|
put a friendly user interface on it
