Re: [Question #233781]: Help to config the aggragation

 

Question #233781 on Graphite changed:
https://answers.launchpad.net/graphite/+question/233781

Description changed to:
Hello,
Perhaps I'm quite stupid but i can't configure the aggregation. Your help is welcome :)

My program sends 13 metrics each 30 seconds and I want to aggregate it
in one minute.

To do this I use the storage-schemas.conf and storage-agregation.conf
files (see at the end of this post).

To test my configuration I send 2 metrics and 2 others 30 second after.
metric1.Count 5050 1375974000
metric2.Temps 67 1375974000

metric1.Count 5050 1375974030
metric2.Temps 67 1375974030

I close the TCP connection at the end of the set (metric1 and metric2).

Graphite create two tables:

09/08/2013 14:21:39 :: [creates] new metric APP.metric2.Temps matched schema APP
09/08/2013 14:21:39 :: [creates] new metric APP.metric2.Temps matched aggregation schema Temps
09/08/2013 14:21:39 :: [creates] creating database file /opt/graphite/storage/whisper/APP/metric2/Temps.wsp (archive=[(60, 44640)] xff=0.0 agg=average)

09/08/2013 14:21:39 :: [creates] new metric APP.metric1.Count matched schema APP
09/08/2013 14:21:39 :: [creates] new metric APP.metric1.Count matched aggregation schema Count
09/08/2013 14:21:39 :: [creates] creating database file /opt/graphite/storage/whisper/APP/metric1/Count.wsp (archive=[(60, 44640)] xff=0.0 agg=sum)

As we can see the schema match to the configuration file and the good
aggregation method is used. I can confirm this with whisper-info.py.

I watch the result with graphite-web and metic1.Count is always at 5050
and not 10100.

I don't understand why aggregation doesn't work.

Thanks for your help !
