Hi, David !

Please look into graphs.cfg

[la1]
         TITLE CPU Utilitization
         YAXIS % Used
         -u 100
         -r
         DEF:cpu_idl=vmstat.rrd:cpu_idl:AVERAGE
         CDEF:pbusy=100,cpu_idl,-
         LINE2:pbusy#00CC00:% CPU busy
         GPRINT:pbusy:LAST: \: %5.1lf (cur)
         GPRINT:pbusy:MAX: \: %5.1lf (max)
         GPRINT:pbusy:MIN: \: %5.1lf (min)
         GPRINT:pbusy:AVERAGE: \: %5.1lf (avg)\n

la1 will be calculated with the values from vmstat.rrd


cheers,
