Hello, I'm trying to learn how to create custom graphs. I have it working for graphing license usage but I'm am not clear on a few things. Here is what I put in the hobbitgraph.cfg:

[license] TITLE License Utilization YAXIS Used Licenses DEF:avg=license.rrd:license:AVERAGE LINE2:avg#@COLOR@:Used Licenses GPRINT:avg:LAST: \: %5.1lf (cur) GPRINT:avg:MAX: \: %5.1lf (max) GPRINT:avg:MIN: \: %5.1lf (min) GPRINT:avg:AVERAGE: \: %5.1lf (avg)\n

man rrdgraph

OR

are there besides AVERAGE?

You should be able to use CDEF get whole numbers.

Thanks

option I need to add to tell it to always use a whole number? My custom_rrd script doesn't send anything except a whole number.

Thanks for any help.
