They may or may not require in-depth knowlege of RRD +files and/or `collectd's inner workings. Use at your own risk. + +add_rra.sh +---------- + Before version 3.9.0 collectd used to create a different set of RRAs. The +most detailed of these old RRAs hat a one minute resolution. This script can be +used to add three more RRAs: minimum, maximum and average with a ten second +resolution and 2200 rows (~6 hours). This will make houly statistics much more +interesting. Please note that no sanity- checking whatsoever is performed. You +can seriously fuck up your RRD files if you don't know what you're doing. + +collectd2html.pl +---------------- + This script by Vincent Stehlé will search for RRD files in +`/var/lib/collectd/' and generate an HTML file and a directory containing +several PNG files which are graphs of the RRD files found. + +collectd.conf +------------- + A sample config file. Used by the Debian package. + +collection.cgi +-------------- + Sample CGI script that creates graphs on the fly. The Perl module `RRDs' is +needed (Debian package `librrds-perl'). + +init.d-rh7 +---------- + Sample init script. Used by the RPM specfile.
