Hi guys

I'm trying to track down a nasty bug.. Probably you guys have some ideas
what this could be or more better .. already the solution? :)

>From time to time i find completely wrong values within the rrd
databases generated by the tail plugin.
Something like: 8.5899345900e+08. Seems to be an overflow.
In reality there should be not more than 2e-1-4e-1

I'm pretty sure that this happens when collectd will be restarted, (Or
stopped?), since it happens quite regularly midnight, when a cronjob
runs which restarts collectd.

I was able to reproduce it also by manually restart it, therefore i
think it does not happen because of rotated log files.
This however is quite random, so definitively not so easy to find.

I *think* it has something to to when the rrd files will be closed ..
Last flush?  Probably..

For now i test with 4.9.1 but it happened also with older versions.


Do you have any suggestions?


kind regards,
peter
