NAME

       whisper-create - create a whisper database

SYNOPSIS

       whisper-create path secondsPerPoint:pointsToStore [secondsPerPoint:pointsToStore]*

DESCRIPTION

       This  command  creates a new whisper fixed-size database. For each database you specify one or more pairs
       of numbers describing how data points should be archived in this database. The first part of the pair  is
       the precision, the second part of the pair is how many data points should be stored. You cannot configure
       two  archives  with  the  same  precision inside a single database. Higher precision archives must evenly
       divide all lower precision archives' precision.

       The options are described below.

OPTIONS

       --overwrite
              Overwrite an existing database.

       --xFilesFactor
              The fraction of data points  in  a  propagation  interval  that  must  have  known  values  for  a
              propagation to occur.

       -h, --help
              Show the embedded help.
