When graph using Gauge, values are correct :
field03a: 5
field03b: 17
field03c: 14
field04a: 3
field04b: 12
field04c: 15
Total: 66
See http://oss.oetiker.ch/rrdtool/doc/rrdcreate.en.html. There you'll
see that there is quite a difference between gauge and derive.
The type of measurement and what you want to know determine which
data type is appropriate. If you are interested in the number of
serious errors reported per second, derive is an appropriate type. 
Set
a minimum value of zero, to prevent negative spikes in the graphs.
Hi, Thanks for your answer.


Minimum value already set (-l 0 on my first post)
My max data value is about 400 (very lower than limit of a integer)
