NAME

       flow-log2rrd — Process the STAT: lines from flow-capture and flow-fanout to RRD files.

SYNOPSIS

       flow-log2rrd [-p rrd_path]

DESCRIPTION

       The  flow-log2rrd  utility  processes  the  STAT lines generated by flow-capture and flow-
       fanout   and    converts    them    into    RRD    files.     RRD's    are    stored    as
       rrd_path/capture|fanout.hostname.srcip.dstip.port.rrd.  The Datastores are flows,pkts,lost
       representing flows, packets,  and  lost  flows  respectively.   Flow-fanout  generates  an
       additional DS nobufs indicating the number of times a write() failed with ENOBUFS.

OPTIONS

       -p rrd_path
                 Path to store files.

EXAMPLES

       Convert flow-capture STAT lines in /var/log/netflow to RRD's in /flows/rrd/.

           cat /var/log/netflow | flow-rpt2rrd -p /flows/rrd

BUGS

       Expects  STAT  lines  every  5 minutes.  Hard coded to 7 days of 5 minute averages and 365
       days of 1 day averages.
