You will need to put 'Interval: 2' into your .cfg files to specify a 2-min interval. Also, you'll probably need to unload the .rrd to XML, and modify the XML to specify a different interval before reloading it into rrdtool. Also, you'd need to change the length of the 1dp RRA (to at least 1000) so that it covers a day. The other RRAs would need to change the number of dp -- so the 30min RRA (6dp) would need to be changed to 15dp (since 1dp is not 2min, not 5min). And so on. Alternatively, just delete your old .rrd and let MRTG create a new one, but you'd lose all your historical data then.
