RRDDUMP(1)                                   rrdtool                                   RRDDUMP(1)



NAME
       rrddump - dump the contents of an RRD to XML format

SYNOPSIS
       rrdtool dump [--no-header|-n] filename.rrd > filename.xml

       or

       rrdtool dump [--no-header|-n] filename.rrd filename.xml

DESCRIPTION
       The dump function writes the contents of an RRD in human readable (?) XML format to a file
       or to stdout. This format can be read by rrdrestore. Together they allow you to transfer
       your files from one computer architecture to another as well to manipulate the contents of
       an RRD file in a somewhat more convenient manner.

       filename.rrd
               The name of the RRD you want to dump.

       filename.xml
               The (optional) filename that you want to write the XML output to.  If not
               specified, the XML will be printed to stdout.

       [--no-header|-n]
               In rrdtool 1.3, the dump function started producing correct xml-headers.
               Unfortunately the rrdtool restore function from the 1.2 series can not handle
               these headers. With this option you can supress the creatinon of the xml headers.

EXAMPLES
       To transfer an RRD between architectures, follow these steps:

       1.  On the same system where the RRD was created, use rrdtool dump to export the data to
           XML format.

       2.  Transfer the XML dump to the target system.

       3.  Run rrdtool restore to create a new RRD from the XML dump. See rrdrestore for details.
