The predicted (or smoothed) values are stored in the \s-1HWPREDICT\s0 \fB\s-1RRA\s0\fR. The predicted deviations (think standard deviation) values are stored in the \s-1DEVPREDICT\s0 \fB\s-1RRA\s0\fR. Finally, the \s-1FAILURES\s0 \fB\s-1RRA\s0\fR contains indicators, with 1 denoting a potential failure. .PP All of the data is rescaled to bits (instead of Octets) by multiplying by 8. The confidence bounds are computed by an offset of 2 deviations both above and below the predicted values (the CDEFs upper and lower). Vertical lines indicated potential failures are graphed via the \s-1TICK\s0 graph element, which converts non-zero values in an \fB\s-1RRA\s0\fR into tick marks. Here an axis-fraction argument of 1.0 means the tick marks span the entire y\-axis, and hence become vertical lines on the graph. .PP The choice of 2 deviations (a scaling factor) matches the default used internally by the \s-1FAILURES\s0 \fB\s-1RRA\s0\fR. If the internal value is changed (see rrdtune), this graphing command should be changed to be consistent. .PP \fIA note on data reduction:\fR .IX Subsection "A note on data reduction:" .PP The \fBrrdtool\fR \fIgraph\fR command is designed to plot data at a specified temporal resolution, regardless of the actually resolution of the data in the \s-1RRD\s0 file. This can present a problem for the specialized consolidation functions which maintain a one-to-one mapping between primary data points and consolidated data points. If a graph insists on viewing the contents of these \fBRRAs\fR on a coarser temporal scale, the \fIgraph\fR command tries to do something intelligent, but the confidence bands and failures no longer have the same meaning and may be misleading. .SH "SEE ALSO" .IX Header "SEE ALSO" rrdgraph gives an overview of how \fBrrdtool graph\fR works. rrdgraph_data describes \fB\s-1DEF\s0\fR,\fB\s-1CDEF\s0\fR and \fB\s-1VDEF\s0\fR in detail. rrdgraph_rpn describes the \fB\s-1RPN\s0\fR language used in the \fBxDEF\fR statements. rrdgraph_graph page describes all the graph and print functions. .SH "AUTHOR" .IX Header "AUTHOR" Program by Tobias Oetiker .PP This manual page by Alex van den Bogaerdt with corrections and/or additions by several people
