[collectd] Sending custom data to Collectd Network plugin (#253)

[vivek gupta]

Dear Florian,

I request again your help on below.

I also want to know how to disable the cumulative function like MIN and MAX from generated rrd files. Please help me here also.

Thanks
Vivek

Dear Florian,
Thanks for your reply. You are correct I was using COUNTER. But I wanted to store absolute value NOT the rate (derivative). I tried with all four types drive, counter, gauge and absolute. Please help me to do so.

Thanks
Vivek

Hi,
you're probably using a DERIVE or COUNTER data source. So RRDtool calculates the rate (derivative) of your values:
	* 4 - 1 = 3
	* 9 - 4 = 5
	* 16 - 9 = 7
	* …
If you enable StoreRates in the CSV plugin, you should get the same values there as well.
HTH,
