Configuration - Archives

The archives file names various data-retention periods. RRDtool|http://people.ee.ethz.ch/~oetiker/webtools/rrdtool/ calls them RRAs. Each line is in two pieces: an archive name and an RRA specification, exactly as documented in the rrdcreate manpage. Unfortunately, modifying this after the rrd has been created isn't one of the things that RRDtool does. I've got an rrd munger on my L<to-do list|todo, but it's still not done.

For example:

	day-avg         AVERAGE:0.1:1:600
	week-avg        AVERAGE:0.1:7:300
	month-avg       AVERAGE:0.1:30:300
	3month-avg      AVERAGE:0.1:90:300
	year-avg        AVERAGE:0.1:365:300
	day-min         MIN:0.1:1:600
	week-min        MIN:0.1:7:300
	month-min       MIN:0.1:30:300
	3month-min      MIN:0.1:90:300
	year-min        MIN:0.1:365:300
