I really need to update the faq again... 1) Spiking in RRDtool usually occurs when counters are reset. These resets look like counter wraps as far as RRDtool is concerned. 2) You should tell RRDtool what the maximum expected rate is. Any rate over this number will be assumed to be invalid input. 3) Using the program "rrdtool tune" you can view and adjust the properties of the rrdtool database. You need to modify the max values; for OC3 these are 19440000. 4) Using the programs "rrdtool dump" and "rrdtool restore" you can make a backup and restore it again; if you use the '--range-check' switch to "rrdtool restore" it can remove spikes. Search the archive for more on the wrap vs. reset problem. This is not really an RRDtool problem, it is a front-end problem.
