Hi Bronto:
I am not sure if i get it right if you are specifying something else than creating a data source (DS) using "RRDTool::OO". If not then my bad but If that is creating a COMPUTE DS then its pretty straight forward . COMPUTE data source is nothing but data source type ABSOLUTE. This is the same way i create a GAUGE data source using RRDTool::OO
#! /usr/bin/perl -w
#simple test ABSOLUTE DS
use strict;
use RRDTool::OO;
# creating new rrd object file
my $rrd = RRDTool::OO->new(
file => "testrrd.rrd" );
# Create a round-robin database
$rrd->create(
step => 1, # one-second intervals
data_source => { name => "mynewDS",
type => "ABSOLUTE" },
archive => { rows => 5 });
This would create a new rrd data file testrrd.rrd with DS the specified DS type.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

are good places to start.
