Mike Wylie gave more information on the question:
Hi,

Thanks for the continued help.  I'm more of a windows man, so I did the
dump then played with it in excel.

Am I right in guessing the format is:
<numeric sequence>:<date time>, <recorded value> 

I'm not sure what to make of the values. They start back May 2013 with a
few demo calls, then I record relatively consistently from then on.

I actually only record once every 15 minutes, whereas my retention says
20s.  so I'm not sure if that's a problem? It's ok for the first
retention bucket.

Also, if I look at the number of non-zero metrics per month, I thought I
would have roughly the same number of metrics per month, but they vary
from 224 in October to only 45 in July. Although that may be something
about my infrastructure or how I'm reading the data?

too much time in excel is probably going to confuse me.  Is there
anything particular I should be looking for?

thanks again for the help
