add_ds.pl(1) program to add datasources to an existing RRD

SYNOPSIS

add-ds.pl <add'l ds> [default_val] [type] [heartbeat] [rrdmin] [rrdmax] < file.xml

DESCRIPTION

<add'l ds>number of additional datasources
[default_val]default value to be entered in add'l fields
[type]type of datasource (i.e. COUNTER, GAUGE...)
[heatbeat]length of time in seconds before RRD thinks your DS is dead
[rrdmin]minimum value allowed for each datasource
[rrdmax]max value allowed for each datasource

Options are read in order, so if you want to change the default heartbeat, you need to specify the default_val and type as well, etc.

Output goes to STDOUT.
