Hi,I setup shorewall to do ip accounting for the different IP's I run. I use cacti to graph those bandwidth usage stats per IP. The problem I have is when I run: # shorewall restart all the accounting stats go to zero and cause spikes on the graphs on the next run which I then have to kill/remove (I have a killspikes script to do this but it's tedious). I think the spikes get graphed because cacti (or really rrdtool) checks for the differences between the previous kbps value and the next one it just got. Is there a way I can tell shorewall not to clear the accounting stats when I do a restart?
No -- your 'init' script needs to capture the counters before 'restart' and your 'start' script needs to capture the values after and adjust your stats accordingly.
