rrdtool graph parameter:

"-S|--step value (default automatic)

By default rrdgraph calculates the width of one pixel in the time domain and 
tries to get data at that resolution from the RRD. With this switch you can 
override this behaviour. If you want rrdgraph to get data at 1 hour resolution 
from the RRD, then you can set the step to 3600 seconds. Note, that a step 
smaller than 1 pixel will be silently ignored."

So If you have a DS with step 1 minute and make an rra of 5 and and rra of 15 
values then
--step 5*60  or --step 15*60 selects the first or the second RRA.

You don't.  You request a graph for a specified time-span and rrdtool 
choses the best RRA which covers that time-span.
