Package org.rrd4j.core

Class RrdDef

java.lang.Object
org.rrd4j.core.RrdDef
public class RrdDef extends Object

Class to represent definition of new Round Robin Database (RRD). Object of this class is used to create new RRD from scratch - pass its reference as a RrdDb constructor argument (see documentation for RrdDb class). RrdDef object does not actually create new RRD. It just holds all necessary information which will be used during the actual creation process.

RRD definition (RrdDef object) consists of the following elements:

  • path to RRD that will be created
  • starting timestamp
  • step
  • version, 1 for linear disposition of archives, 2 for matrix disposition
  • one or more datasource definitions
  • one or more archive definitions

RrdDef provides API to set all these elements. For the complete explanation of all RRD definition parameters, see RRDTool's rrdcreate man page.
