I am producing an rrd graph and I am facing 2 problems.
Problem 1: The numbers that I am printing they are integers without decimals, although when they are printed decimals appear. It is really confusing. So I looked online on the rrdgraph_graph and although that I am using the correct syntax and I am not applying any calculations I still do get floating values instead of integers.
According to the official website: %s place this after %le, %lf or %lg. This will be replaced by the appropriate SI magnitude unit and the value will be scaled accordingly (123456 -> 123.456 k).
I have attached a photo as sample of the output. I have also provide a working example code so if anyone understands the RRD's can view possible the error.
Problem 2: I was trying to add on my graph the VRULE:time#color[:legend][:dashes[=on_s[,off_s[,on_s,off_s]...]][:dash-offset=offset]]
function and based on the online instructions I can supply the time. Since my graph is shifting I was planning to do time (value) - 1800 sec. I wanted to place a vertical line in the middle of the graph so I could view approximately an average on 30 minutes values. When I am applying such a format I get this error:
<b>Graph error: </b>parameter '1400274668-1800' does not represent time in line VRULE:1400274668-1800#0000CD:Half way values
When I remove the subtraction everything work fine. Is there a way to produce this line in the middle of my graph?
