Due to network limitations and the number of hosts involved, I decided to back the frequency of reports for the clients back to 15 mintues. I updated the INTERVAL parm in clientlauch.cfg.... easy enough.
However, now, none of my graphs are working. Reason being, all of my rrd files have heartbeats of 10 mintues. After looking through the code, I was disappointed to see that the 600 second heartbeat is hardcoded into all of the /xymond/rrd/do_*.c files. This leaves me with two options. 1. Recode all of those programs to create the RRD's from a variable. Or 2. Run rrdtool tune on all of rrds after they are created. Or am I missing something?
I would like to see that the heartbeat for rrds that are created would always be equal to 2 X Client INTERVAL. Also, it would be helpful to have in the documentation that you can set the rrd STEP parameter in rrddefinitions.cfg
