DDEESSCCRRIIPPTTIIOONN
       The ggrraapphh function of RRRRDDttooooll is used to present the data from an RRRRDD
       to a human viewer.  Its main purpose is to create a nice graphical
       representation, but it can also generate a numerical report.

OOVVEERRVVIIEEWW
       rrrrddttooooll ggrraapphh needs data to work with, so you must use one or more ddaattaa
       ddeeffiinniittiioonn statements to collect this data.  You are not limited to one
       database, it's perfectly legal to collect data from two or more
       databases (one per statement, though).

       If you want to display averages, maxima, percentiles, etcetera it is
       best to collect them now using the vvaarriiaabbllee ddeeffiinniittiioonn statement.
       Currently this makes no difference, but in a future version of RRDtool
       you may want to collect these values before consolidation.

       The data fetched from the RRRRAA is then ccoonnssoolliiddaatteedd so that there is
       exactly one data point per pixel in the graph. If you do not take care
       yourself, RRRRDDttooooll will expand the range slightly if necessary. Note, in
       that case the first and/or last pixel may very well become unknown!

       Sometimes data is not exactly in the format you would like to display
       it. For instance, you might be collecting bbyytteess per second, but want to
       display bbiittss per second. This is what the ddaattaa ccaallccuullaattiioonn command is
       designed for. After ccoonnssoolliiddaattiinngg the data, a copy is made and this
       copy is modified using a rather powerful RRPPNN command set.

       When you are done fetching and processing the data, it is time to graph
       it (or print it).  This ends the rrrrddttooooll ggrraapphh sequence.

       Use ggrraapphhvv instead of ggrraapphh to get detailed information about the graph
       geometry and data once it is drawn. See the bottom of the document for
       more information.

OOPPTTIIOONNSS
   _f_i_l_e_n_a_m_e
       The name and path of the graph to generate. It is recommended to end
       this in ".png", ".svg" or ".eps", but RRRRDDttooooll does not enforce this.

       _f_i_l_e_n_a_m_e can be '"-"' to send the image to "stdout". In this case, no
       other output is generated.

       The start and end of the time series you would like to display, and
       which RRRRAA the data should come from.  Defaults are: 1 day ago until
       now, with the best possible resolution. SSttaarrtt and eenndd can be specified
       in several formats, see "AT-STYLE TIME SPECIFICATION" in rrdfetch and
       rrdgraph_examples.  By default, rrrrddttooooll ggrraapphh calculates the width of
       one pixel in the time domain and tries to get data from an RRRRAA with
       that resolution.  With the sstteepp option you can alter this behavior.  If
       you want rrrrddttooooll ggrraapphh to get data at a one-hour resolution from the
       RRRRDD, set sstteepp to 3'600. Note: a step smaller than one pixel will
       silently be ignored.

       For non-image ----iimmggffoorrmmaatts see "OUTPUT FORMAT" in rrdxport for details
       on how this affects the output.

       A vertical string placed at the left hand of the graph.

       [--DD|----ffuullll--ssiizzee--mmooddee]

       By default, the width and height of the ccaannvvaass (the part with the
       actual data and such). This defaults to 400 pixels by 100 pixels.

       If you specify the ----ffuullll--ssiizzee--mmooddee option, the width and height
       specify the final dimensions of the output image and the canvas is
       automatically resized to fit.

       If you specify the ----oonnllyy--ggrraapphh option and set the height < 32 pixels
       you will get a tiny graph image (thumbnail) to use as an icon for use
       in an overview, for example. All labeling will be stripped off the
       graph.

       [----aallllooww--sshhrriinnkk]

       By default the graph will be autoscaling so that it will adjust the
       y-axis to the range of the data. You can change this behavior by
       explicitly setting the limits. The displayed y-axis will then range at
       least from lloowweerr--lliimmiitt to uuppppeerr--lliimmiitt. Autoscaling will still permit
       those boundaries to be stretched unless the rriiggiidd option is set. aallllooww--
       sshhrriinnkk alters behaivor of rriiggiidd by allowing auto down scale, graph will
       not overrun user specified limits.

       [--AA|----aalltt--aauuttoossccaallee]

       Sometimes the default algorithm for selecting the y-axis scale is not
       satisfactory. Normally the scale is selected from a predefined set of
       ranges and this fails miserably when you need to graph something like
       "260 + 0.001 * sin(x)". This option calculates the minimum and maximum
       y-axis from the actual minimum and maximum data values. Our example
       would display slightly less than "260-0.001" to slightly more than
       "260+0.001" (this feature was contributed by Sasha Mikheev).

       [--JJ|----aalltt--aauuttoossccaallee--mmiinn]

       Where "--alt-autoscale" will modify both the absolute maximum AND
       minimum values, this option will only affect the minimum value. The
       maximum value, if not defined on the command line, will be 0. This
       option can be useful when graphing router traffic when the WAN line
       uses compression, and thus the throughput may be higher than the WAN
       line speed.

       [--MM|----aalltt--aauuttoossccaallee--mmaaxx]

       Where "--alt-autoscale" will modify both the absolute maximum AND

       [--NN|----nnoo--ggrriiddffiitt]

       In order to avoid anti-aliasing blurring effects RRDtool snaps points
       to device resolution pixels, this results in a crisper appearance. If
       this is not to your liking, you can use this switch to turn this
       behavior off.

       Grid-fitting is turned off for PDF, EPS, SVG output by default.

       [--xx|----xx--ggrriidd nnoonnee]

       The x-axis label is quite complex to configure. If you don't have very
       special needs it is probably best to rely on the auto configuration to
       get this right. You can specify the string "none" to suppress the grid
       and labels altogether.

       The grid is defined by specifying a certain amount of time in the _?_T_M
       positions. You can choose from "SECOND", "MINUTE", "HOUR", "DAY",
       "WEEK", "MONTH" or "YEAR". Then you define how many of these should
       pass between each line or label.  This pair (_?_T_M_:_?_S_T) needs to be
       specified for the base grid (_G_?_?), the major grid (_M_?_?) and the labels
       (_L_?_?). For the labels you also must define a precision in _L_P_R and a
       _s_t_r_f_t_i_m_e format string in _L_F_M.  _L_P_R defines where each label will be
       placed. If it is zero, the label will be placed right under the
       corresponding line (useful for hours, dates etcetera).  If you specify
       a number of seconds here the label is centered on this interval (useful
       for Monday, January etcetera).

        --x-grid MINUTE:10:HOUR:1:HOUR:4:0:%X

       This places grid lines every 10 minutes, major grid lines every hour,
       and labels every 4 hours. The labels are placed under the major grid
       lines as they specify exactly that time.

        --x-grid HOUR:8:DAY:1:DAY:1:86400:%A

       This places grid lines every 8 hours, major grid lines and labels each
       day. The labels are placed exactly between two major grid lines as they
       specify the complete day and not just midnight.

       [----wweeeekk--ffmmtt _s_t_r_f_t_i_m_e _f_o_r_m_a_t _s_t_r_i_n_g]

       By default rrdtool uses "Week %V" to render the week number. With this
       option you can define your own format, without completely overriding
       the xaxis format.

   YY--AAxxiiss
       [--yy|----yy--ggrriidd _g_r_i_d _s_t_e_p::_l_a_b_e_l _f_a_c_t_o_r]

       [--yy|----yy--ggrriidd nnoonnee]

       Y-axis grid lines appear at each _g_r_i_d _s_t_e_p interval.  Labels are placed
       every _l_a_b_e_l _f_a_c_t_o_r lines.  You can specify "-y none" to suppress the
       grid and labels altogether.  The default for this option is to
       automatically select sensible values.

       If you have set --y-grid to 'none' not only the labels get suppressed,
       also the space reserved for the labels is removed. You can still add
       space manually if you use the --units-length command to explicitly
       reserve space.

       ttiimmeessttaammpp
           Values are interpreted as unix timestamps (number of seconds since
           1970-01-01 00:00:00 UTC) and expressed using strftime format
           (default is '%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S'). See also ----uunniittss--lleennggtthh and

       [----lleefftt--aaxxiiss--ffoorrmmaatt _f_o_r_m_a_t_-_s_t_r_i_n_g]

       By default the format of the axis labels gets determined automatically.
       If you want to do this yourself, use this option with the same %lf
       arguments you know from the PRINT and GPRINT commands, or others if
       using different formatter.

       [--YY|----aalltt--yy--ggrriidd]

       Place the Y grid dynamically based on the graph's Y range. The
       algorithm ensures that you always have a grid, that there are enough
       but not too many grid lines, and that the grid is metric. That is the
       grid lines are placed every 1, 2, 5 or 10 units. This parameter will
       also ensure that you get enough decimals displayed even if your graph
       goes from 69.998 to 70.001.  (contributed by Sasha Mikheev).

       [--oo|----llooggaarriitthhmmiicc]

       Logarithmic y-axis scaling.

       [--XX|----uunniittss--eexxppoonneenntt _v_a_l_u_e]

       This sets the 10**exponent scaling of the y-axis values. Normally,
       values will be scaled to the appropriate units (k, M, etc.).  However,
       you may wish to display units always in k (Kilo, 10e3) even if the data
       is in the M (Mega, 10e6) range, for instance. Value should be an
       integer which is a multiple of 3 between -18 and 18 inclusively.  It is
       the exponent on the units you wish to use. For example, use 3 to
       display the y-axis values in k (Kilo, 10e3, thousands), use -6 to
       display the y-axis values in u (Micro, 10e-6, millionths).  Use a value
       of 0 to prevent any scaling of the y-axis values.

       This option is very effective at confusing the heck out of the default
       RRDtool autoscaling function and grid painter. If RRDtool detects that
       it is not successful in labeling the graph under the given
       circumstances, it will switch to the more robust ----aalltt--yy--ggrriidd mode.

       [--LL|----uunniittss--lleennggtthh _v_a_l_u_e]

       How many digits should RRDtool assume the y-axis labels to be? You may
       have to use this option to make enough space once you start fiddling
       with the y-axis labeling.

       [----uunniittss==ssii]

       With this option y-axis values on logarithmic graphs will be scaled to
       the appropriate units (k, M, etc.) instead of using exponential
       notation.  Note that for linear graphs, SI notation is used by default.

       A second axis will be drawn to the right of the graph. It is tied to
       the left axis via the scale and shift parameters. You can also define a
       label for the right axis.

       that the output of PRINT and graphv will be complete regardless. Note
       that the behavior of lazy in this regard has seen several changes over
       time. The only thing you can really rely on before RRDtool 1.3.7 is
       that lazy will not generate the graph when it is already there and up
       to date, and also that it will output the size of the graph.

       This lets you customize which font to use for the various text elements
       on the RRD graphs. "DEFAULT" sets the default value for all elements,
       "TITLE" for the title, "AXIS" for the axis labels, "UNIT" for the
       vertical unit label, "LEGEND" for the graph legend, "WATERMARK" for the
       watermark on the edge of the graph.

       Note that you need to quote the argument to ----ffoonntt if the font-name
       contains whitespace: --font "TITLE:13:Some Font"

       If you do not give a font string you can modify just the size of the
       default font: "--font TITLE:13:".

       If you specify the size 0 then you can modify just the font without
       touching the size. This is especially useful for altering the default
       font without resetting the default fontsizes: "--font

       RRDtool comes with a preset default font. You can set the environment
       variable "RRD_DEFAULT_FONT" if you want to change this.

       RRDtool uses Pango for its font handling. This means you can to use the
       full Pango syntax when selecting your font:

       The font name has the form "[_F_A_M_I_L_Y_-_L_I_S_T] [_S_T_Y_L_E_-_O_P_T_I_O_N_S] [_S_I_Z_E]",

       words where each WORD describes one of style, variant, weight, stretch,
       or gravity, and _S_I_Z_E is a decimal number (size in points) or optionally
       followed by the unit modifier "px" for absolute size. Any one of the

       nnoorrmmaall: Full Hinting and Anti-aliasing (default)

       lliigghhtt: Slight Hinting and Anti-aliasing

       mmoonnoo: Full Hinting and NO Anti-aliasing

       (this gets ignored in 1.3 for now!)

       This specifies the largest font size which will be rendered bitmapped,
       that is, without any font smoothing. By default, no text is rendered
       bitmapped.

       [--PP|----ppaannggoo--mmaarrkkuupp]

       All text in RRDtool is rendered using Pango. With the ----ppaannggoo--mmaarrkkuupp
       option, all text will be processed by pango markup. This allows one to
       embed some simple html like markup tags using

        <span key="value">text</span>

       Apart from the verbose syntax, there are also the following short tags
       available.

        b     Bold
        big   Makes font relatively larger, equivalent to <span size="larger">
        i     Italic
        s     Strikethrough
        sub   Subscript
        sup   Superscript
        small Makes font relatively smaller, equivalent to <span size="smaller">
        tt    Monospace font
        u     Underline

       There are 2 render modes:

       nnoorrmmaall: Graphs are fully Anti-aliased (default)

       mmoonnoo: No Anti-aliasing

       [--EE|----ssllooppee--mmooddee]

       RRDtool graphs are composed of stair case curves by default. This is in
       line with the way RRDtool calculates its data. Some people favor a more
       'organic' look for their graphs even though it is not all that true.

       [--aa|----iimmggffoorrmmaatt PPNNGG|SSVVGG|EEPPSS|PPDDFF|XXMMLL|XXMMLLEENNUUMM|JJSSOONN|JJSSOONNTTIIMMEE|CCSSVV|TTSSVV|SSSSVV]

       Image format for the generated graph. For the vector formats you can
       choose among the standard Postscript fonts Courier-Bold, Courier-
       BoldOblique, Courier-Oblique, Courier, Helvetica-Bold, Helvetica-
       BoldOblique, Helvetica-Oblique, Helvetica, Symbol, Times-Bold, Times-
       BoldItalic, Times-Italic, Times-Roman, and ZapfDingbats.

       For Export type you can define XML, XMLENUM (enumerates the value tags
       <v0>,<v1>,<v2>,...), JSON, JSONTIME (adds a timestamp to each data
       row), CSV (=comma separated values), TSV (=tab separated values), SSV
       (=semicolon separated values), (for comma/tab/semicolon separated
       values the time format by default is in the form of unix time. to
       change it to something else use: --x-grid
       MINUTE:10:HOUR:1:HOUR:4:0:"%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S")

       For non-image ----iimmggffoorrmmaatts see "OUTPUT FORMAT" in rrdxport for details
       on the output.

       If images are interlaced they become visible on browsers more quickly.

       By default the tab-width is 40 pixels, use this option to change it.

       If you are graphing memory (and NOT network traffic) this switch should
       be set to 1024 so that one Kb is 1024 byte. For traffic measurement, 1
       kb/s is 1000 b/s.

       [--WW|----wwaatteerrmmaarrkk _s_t_r_i_n_g]

       Adds the given string as a watermark, horizontally centered, at the
       bottom of the graph.

       If one DS is missing, either because the RRD is not available or
       because it does not contain the requested DS name, just assume that we
       got empty values instead of raising a fatal error.

       You need at least one graph element to generate an image and/or at
       least one print statement to generate a report.  See rrdgraph_graph for
       the exact format.

       Calling RRDtool with the graphv option will return information in the
       RRDtool info format. On the command line this means that all output
       will be in key=value format. When used from the Perl and Ruby bindings
       a hash pointer will be returned from the call.

       When the filename '-' is given, the contents of the graph itself will
       also be returned through this interface (hash key 'image'). On the
       command line the output will look like this:

        print[0] = "0.020833"
        print[1] = "0.0440833"
        graph_left = 51
        graph_top = 22
        graph_width = 400
        graph_height = 100
        graph_start = 1232908800
        graph_end = 1232914200
        image_width = 481
        image_height = 154
        value_min = 0.0000000000e+00
        value_max = 4.0000000000e-02
        image = BLOB_SIZE:8196
        [... 8196 bytes of image data ...]

       There is more information returned than in the standard interface.
       Especially the 'graph_*' keys are new. They help applications that want
       to know what is where on the graph.

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

       RRRRDDCCAACCHHEEDD__AADDDDRREESSSS
           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.

       RRRRDD__DDEEFFAAUULLTT__FFOONNTT
           RRDtool comes with a preset default font. You can set the
           environment variable RRD_DEFAULT_FONT if you want to change this.
