  Did you newly generate the RRD files?  If you had Orca read some new
percol-*
  files and then later add additional older percol-* files to the
directories where Orca
  looks, then those data will not be added to the RRD files since RRD files
only
  accept newer data (you can't add data older than the newest timestamp).
If this
  is the case, then put all of the percol-* files in one place, remove the
RRD files and
  rerun Orca.
  If this isn't the case, please describe in greater detail what steps were
taken that
  might have caused this.

  Regards,
  Blair

    oh, sorry.  What I meant to say is that I have rrd data for the past 4
months but the graphs are only showing today's data.  I'd like to generate
the graphs using all of the data, not just today's.  FYI: this is a new Orca
installation.  It just so happens that I had orcallator running on the
machine grabbing data for a long while.clues?- N

      for that Orca plot Daily but also Weekly , Monthly,....But is't true
isn't possible to ask Orca to plot  again a specific date because the
previous data are losted ( avarage) in the rrd database , the only solution
is to backup each day , the Daily pictures .

         How do I tell orca to generate html files on previous days data.
Currently
        when I run it with the orcallator.cfg it just grab's today's data
when in
        fact within the same rrd directory that has today's data contains
rrd files
        for the past 4 months or so.  Why doesn't it generate data for them
as well?
        More than willing to RTFM but couldn't find much info on specifying
specific
        rrd files to use in the man page and whatnot.

        thanks
