The upgrade path would really be: One of the items on the 3.1.x wishlist is to change the units of metrics to the base unit, i.e. if the unit used to be GB, we change it to Bytes and let RRDtool deal with the scaling. If we decide to go ahead with this, it will potentially change the granularity of the data being stored in the RRD.
