I'm not running MRTG as a daemon.. i'm running the cfg files every 5 minutes 
from my crontab.. so, i guess i cannot enable the logging parameter you are 
suggesting....

At the moment, i'm running three different conf files for this aggregated 
graph...

The first, is the one that has problem... The second, is the same, but without 
the threshold checking, and the third is on mrtg with rrdtool frontent... I 
will monitor it tonight and i'll come back to give an update on the list...

Peter,

I might be wrong, but when seeing the irregularities in the graph I would say 
the polling of the data is not regular at the time of the little tremours in 
the graph.
Normally MRTG deals with delayed polls by calculating the time between the last 
and the previous poll. With aggregated targets however there is no exact 
polling time that is valid for all three targets. In stead the stored polling 
time is the time when the last target reported it's data.
Do you start mrtg with a log file? (To do so add --logging=<file name>)
If so, are there any messages from missed polls or retries in the log file?
Some things that can cause the polling to be irregular: Congestion in the 
network between your MRTG box and the target, or an heavily loaded MRTG box, ...

To avoid problems in graphs with aggregated bandwith you have to switch to 
RRDtool for your backend, store the bandwith of the individual targets, and 
create the aggregated graph with a frontend like routers2.cgi.
In this way all calculattions for counter rollovers, offset polling time etc. 
is done before the data is summarized.

HTH,

Jan.

Subject: [mrtg] Weired behavior of MRTG


Dear all

I'm using mrtg 2.11.1 and i have the following
problem;

As you can see in the attached image (img0.png,
img0-w.png), every day at the same time period i have
this strange increase and decrease of the bandwidth. 

This is not normal, because when i'm checking each
interface separately (img1.png, img2.png, img3.png),
it seems that everything works ok. I have also
crosschecked with the other end (my customer) and he
doesn't see any problem on his graphs...

Bellow you can find my cfg file which produced the
img0.png and img0-w.png


WorkDir: /usr/local/apache/htdocs/mrtg/cust/otenet

Options[_]: growright, bits, transparent, noborder,
nobanner, nolegend

ThreshDir: /var/log/mrtg-thresh

Today, i removed the Threshold feature (i have placed
it at 11.5GB/sec) and i will monitor it, but i don't
think that the problem begins from the Trheshold
checking... Any advise? does anyone else faced the
same problem or a similar issue?
