NAME

       whisper-create - create a whisper database

SYNOPSIS

       whisper-create path secondsPerPoint:pointsToStore [secondsPerPoint:pointsToStore]*

DESCRIPTION

       This  command  creates a new whisper fixed-size database. For each database you specify one or more pairs
       of numbers describing how data points should be archived in this database. The first part of the pair  is
       the precision, the second part of the pair is how many data points should be stored. You cannot configure
       two archives with the same precision inside a single database.  Higher  precision  archives  must  evenly
       divide all lower precision archives' precision.

       The options are described below.

OPTIONS

       --overwrite
              Overwrite an existing database.

       --xFilesFactor
              The  fraction  of  data  points  in  a  propagation  interval  that  must  have known values for a
              propagation to occur.

       -h, --help
              Show the embedded help.
