17 XML format to a file or to stdout. This format can be read by
18 rrdrestore. Together they allow you to transfer your files from one
19 computer architecture to another as well to manipulate the contents of
26 The (optional) filename that you want to write the XML output
27 to. If not specified, the XML will be printed to stdout.
30 In rrdtool 1.3, the dump function started producing correct
31 xml-headers. Unfortunately the rrdtool restore function from
32 the 1.2 series can not handle these headers. With this option
33 you can supress the creatinon of the xml headers.
36 To transfer an RRD between architectures, follow these steps:
38 1. On the same system where the RRD was created, use r\brr\brd\bdt\bto\boo\bol\bl d\bdu\bum\bmp\bp to
39 export the data to XML format.
41 2. Transfer the XML dump to the target system.
43 3. Run r\brr\brd\bdt\bto\boo\bol\bl r\bre\bes\bst\bto\bor\bre\be to create a new RRD from the XML dump. See
