Hi

I've got a host that has apparently sent false info to the hobbit server,
and the result is that the monthly graph shows a flatline with a "80M %"
memory use.
I don't want to delete the whole rrd file, is there any way to truncate this
graph to only show below 101% usage?

I'm using hobbit 4.2.0 on a Centos 5 linux server, and the same version
hobbit client on a solaris 9 client

Thanks
Stefan

You may be able to dump the rrd file to an xml file (with rrdtool dump, see 
rrddump man page), edit the bogus value(s) out, and then import it again to an 
rrd file.
