RRDRESTORE(1) rrdtool RRDRESTORE(1)
NAME
rrdrestore - Restore the contents of an RRD from its XML dump format
SYNOPSIS
rrdtool restore filename.xml filename.rrd [--range-check|-r]
[--force-overwrite|-f]
DESCRIPTION
The restore function reads the XML representation of an RRD and
converts it to the native RRD format.
filename.xml
The name of the 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 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
RRDtool server after a restore.
filename.rrd
The name of the RRD to restore.
--range-check|-r
Make sure the values in the RRAs do not exceed the limits
defined for the various data sources.
--force-overwrite|-f
Allows RRDtool to overwrite the destination RRD.
