Question #254304 on Graphite changed: https://answers.launchpad.net/graphite/+question/254304
Status: Open => Answered Jason Dixon proposed the following answer: Your highest precision retention should match your polling frequency. Because you have a 5s:5m retention level, many of your "buckets" are being rolled up into the 30s:1h as "none", causing your original data to be averaged down. I explained some of this here: http://obfuscurity.com/2012/04/Unhelpful-Graphite-Tip-9 If you're going to continue polling every 30s, then remove that 5s:5m from your policy and restart your carbon-cache. If your data is all bad you might as well delete your Whisper files too. Otherwise you'll want to do a whisper-resize to match your new retention policy. -- You received this question notification because you are a member of graphite-dev, which is an answer contact for Graphite. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~graphite-dev Post to : graphite-dev@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~graphite-dev More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
