My inclination is to leave the decision of resizing existing RRAs to the admin. There are tools available to easily handle that, if that is indeed what the admin wants. But some people may want to change the step size while leaving existing RRAs untouched. I think its safer if gmetad doesn't force a particular choice on a user if it doesn't need to. But if you have a patch to implement the "dynamic default" scheme you mentioned, I would love to see that included in Ganglia. -- Rick Mohr Systems Developer Ohio Supercomputer Center ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
