Hi there.

When running check_snmp and returning performance data which includes
a unit of measurement (UOM) of counter (c) the associated rrd file
always has a Data Source Type (DST) of GAUGE whereas is should
arguably be COUNTER.

Here's an example...

[u...@host]# /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_snmp -H host -o OID -C
communitystring
SNMP OK - 177 | label=177c

[u...@host]# rrdtool info value.rrd
ds[value].type = "GAUGE"

As you can see the performance data clearly provides a UOM of the type
counter but the associated rrd file has its DST set to GAUGE.

Can this be fixed ?

And in the meantime can someone point me in the direction of where I
can troubleshoot this further - should I be looking at insert.pl ?

Thanks very much.
