We are in the process of researching to use RRDTool graph to create graphs.
We run load tests periodically. When we run load tests we would collect sys=
tem metrics like cpu, memory, network etc (using cacti). What we are intere=
sted in is to create one graph which will display two data graph lines in t=
he SAME graph PNG file one with one time period for CPU usage and line anot=
her time period. So that we can compare if there is any change from test to=
 another.

We run one test on 11/01/2008 from 10AM to 10PM and the next test on 11/03/=
2008 11AM to 11PM.
Using the RRDTool is it possible to compare cpu usage of both these periods=
?

Can any one help us out. If it is already in the mailing list please point =
to the link.
I would greatly appreciate.

Thanks a lot all for the anticipated responses.
Have a great day.
Venkat
