Tony,

When you get this one solved, let me know. I tried a non-interface Nth percentile some time ago and did not have luck either, but it was a whim and I moved on :(

I'd like to solve it based on rrdtool VDEF. VDEF brings support (not only) for this. And why reinvent the wheel? I still have some code based on 086something; but Tony was talking about backporting a 0.9.0 based solution.

Ok,

Well, I don't have a good answer to your issue.

Nth Percentile was not designed to work with Gauge type data sources.

Please submit a feature request at http://www.cacti.net/bugs.php so that I will repair this issue in the future.

Yea I know, blast from the past...

I'm experiencing this issue with non-traffic COUNTER data sources. The 95th hrule/command just show as 0. Yes, I know the bug was resolved as can't fix for GAUGE data sources.

Guess yet another long standing bug/issue other there 'eh?
