=head1 NAME

rrdinfo - extract header information from an RRD

=head1 SYNOPSIS

B<rrdtool> B<info> I<filename.rrd>

=head1 DESCRIPTION

The B<info> function prints the header information from an RRD in
a parsing friendly format.

Check L<rrdcreate> if you are uncertain about the meaning of the
individual keys.

=head1 EXAMPLE

This is the output generated by running B<info> on a simple RRD which
contains two data sources and one RRA. Note that the number after the
I<last_update> keyword is in seconds since 1970. The string B<NaN>
stands for I<*UNKNOWN*> data. In the example it means that this RRD
has neither minimum nor maximum values defined for either of its
data sources.

 rrd_version = "0001"

 last_update = 955892996
