rrdlist - Man Page

List directories and rrd databases.

Synopsis

rrdtool list [--daemon|-d address] [--noflush|-F] [--recursive|-r] path

Description

The list function provides an 'ls-like' interface for traversing and listing the rrd database tree.

When using the --daemon option, the list function connects to rrdcached, the RRD caching daemon, and issues a “list” command for the given path.

path

The path (starting with '/') with '/' being the rrdcached base_dir.

--daemon|-d address

Address of the rrdcached daemon. If not specified, the RRDCACHED_ADDRESS environment variable must be set (see below).  For a list of accepted formats, see the -l option in the rrdcached manual.

 rrdtool list --daemon 127.0.0.1:42218 /cluster/nodes/node1
--noflush|-F

When using a daemon, rrdtool list will usually flush its cache to the disk before performing operations. This option disables cache flushing.

--recursive|-r

Make the list of rrd databases recursive.

Environment Variables

The following environment variables may be used to change the behavior of rrdtool list:

RRDCACHED_ADDRESS

If this environment variable is set it will have the same effect as specifying the --daemon option on the command line. If both are present, the command line argument takes precedence.
