Keep RRD file

Post by bruceng39 »

Hello,

Is it possible to keep the RRD file even if the HOST is down for a certain period?

I found that RRD file is deleted automatically when it is down for 1 week. But I actually want to keep it because the HOST will be alive after that.


Thanks,
Bruce

I do not recall anything in Cacti that automatically deletes the RRD file if there is no data...

The rrdfile can be optionally removed once the data source is removed. Cacti does not remove rrds just cause a device is down. Suspect someone put something in your devices Cron.
