Hi Josh, currently we didn't delete the old data... I'm not the owner of the xymon system also by company rules I should justify the deletion of that data. Besides that: I'm assuming that CPU downgrade requires special handling.
General question can we delete specific data from a host. For example, can we delete all CPU related data from this specific server and still have the disk, network and other monitored data. Like a specific reset.. Or is a all or nothing treatment?

Hi people: we use Xymon 4.3.30 and I believe had issues when vms are downgrade on the CPU quantity. For example one vms was 12 CPUs and month ago we re-shape it to 2 CPUs (same RAM).
But the realCPU stats sometime show and Y axis of 120%... For example today got red alarm by realCPU on 95% and the graph show a Y axis of 120%.
Should we make some adjustments or issue some command to correct this ?
Any input will really appreciate it. I don't know if this helps but; this example is running redhat 8.6 on Oracle OCI cloud.
