Hello,

 
I never did get any replies on this one, so I thought I'd send it again.

 
What's the best way to do this? Remove the file and let xymon (hobbit)

re-create the database and then try to export and import the old data?

Is there a way to add the new column?

 
Any help would really be appreciate. I don't want to loose the old data.

 
Thanks.James

Subject: [hobbit] Need Help Migrating RRD data

 
Hello,

 
So, I wrote a Hobbit(xymon) Script that gives the number of users

accessing specific URL's which goes into the RRD database.

 
I now want to track the number of users accessing another

URL, so I modified my hobbit script and the hobbitgraph.cfg.

 
However, I can't see the new data. What's the easiest way to

get the new value into the RRD database?

 
I know I can just remove the existing database and have it

re-create the database and it will start pulling the new data.

 
However, I want my old data from the other values in there

in addition to the new one.

 
Any assistance would be appreciated.

 
Thanks.James
