[drraw-users] changing path to rrd files

To get more IO I have to move the rrd files underlying my drraw
installation to a different path. I did some search-and-replace in my
saved/index file and for the most part graphs are working.

Unfortunately, a lot of the templates are NOT working and trying to
edit them gives a message like:

Invalid filename for DS "a": /stats/data/db/LOAD-exn_ps.rrd

and interestingly, that file exists, is readable by drraw and I can
create a new graph using it no problem. Once I get an error like that
I can't even see the old definition to see what might be wrong -- I'm
just prompted to create a new graph.

Looking through the t* file that corresponds to that template and in
index, I don't see anything odd or that needs to be changed, so
clearly I'm missing something...

Does anyone have some hints on what to check?

Christophe -- do you have some guidelines on what all has to change
when this sort of move is made?

Thanks,
Adi
