rrdrestore - Restore the contents of an RRD from its XML dump format
|
|
|
|
=head1 SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
B<rrdtool> B<restore> I<filename.xml> I<filename.rrd>
|
|
S<[B<--range-check>|B<-r>]>
|
|
S<[B<--force-overwrite>|B<-f>]>
|
|
|
|
=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
The B<restore> function reads the XML representation of an RRD and converts
|
|
it to the native B<RRD> format.
|
|
|
|
=over 8
|
|
|
|
=item I<filename.xml>
|
|
|
|
The name of the B<XML> file you want to restore. The special filename "-"
|
|
(a single dash) is interpreted as standard input.
|
|
|
|
In order to support the restore command in pipe mode (especially when
|
|
using B<RRDtool> over a network connection), when using "-" as a filename
|
|
the end of the file can be signaled either by closing the data
|
|
channel after the file has transferred (as would be the case when
|
|
using input redirection within a suitable shell) or by sending a
|
|
crtl-Z / newline combination. This allows one to send more commands to the
|
|
B<RRDtool> server after a restore.
|
|
|
|
=item I<filename.rrd>
|
|
|
|
The name of the B<RRD> to restore.
|
|
|
|
=item B<--range-check>|B<-r>
|
|
|
|
Make sure the values in the RRAs do not exceed the limits defined for
|
|
the various data sources.
|
|
|
|
=item B<--force-overwrite>|B<-f>
|
|
|
|
Allows B<RRDtool> to overwrite the destination B<RRD>.
