-<p>In rrdtool 1.3, the dump function started producing correct xml-headers.
-Unfortunately the rrdtool restore function from the 1.2 series can not
-handle these headers. With this option you can supress the creatinon of
-the xml headers.</p>
+<p>Address of the <a href="././rrdcached.html">the rrdcached manpage</a> daemon. If specified, a <code>flush</code> command is sent
+to the server before reading the RRD files. This allows <strong>rrdtool</strong> to return
+fresh data even if the daemon is configured to cache values for a long time.
+For a list of accepted formats, see the <strong>-l</strong> option in the <a href="././rrdcached.html">the rrdcached manpage</a> manual.</p>

+<h1><a name="environment_variables">ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES</a></h1>
+<p>The following environment variables may be used to change the behavior of

+<dl>
+<dt><strong><a name="rrdcached_address" class="item"><strong>RRDCACHED_ADDRESS</strong></a></strong></dt>
+
+<dd>
+<p>If this environment variable is set it will have the same effect as specifying

+line argument takes precedence.</p>
