[rrd-users] ds-name name length limit

Hi,

Datasource names are currently limited to 19 characters.
I haven't looked at the source but would it be simple to remove this limit or make it much higher
(eg 255)?

thanks for rrdtool,
-m

Hi Morgan,

yes very simple ... the only problem is, that your rrd files will
not be compatible with other rrd instances.
