Check out the archives on www.onelist.com(you need to login) for 7/13 and
earlier, the topic is new feature. Actually I send the last email regarding
that topic and haven't gotten a reply yet. Not sure what the status is on
that.....

Subject: [cricket-users] COUNTER wrapping

From: "Stephen J. Roznowski" <sjr@home.net>

I'm trying to monitor network sent/receive on a NetApp. Apparently,
internally the counter is 32 bits, but it is divided by 1024 before
SNMP returns the value (so it appears to be a 22 bit counter).

When cricket/rrd notices that the counter has wrapped, it thinks
that it has wrapped at 4294967296 vice 4194304, so I get a hugh
spike in my graph.

How can I fix this problem?
