Another 0.70 anomality, may exist in earlier versions as well.
I've noticed a problem where RRDTool doesn't record the data that
Cricket collects for one sample period every 50 hour interval
(using the default five-minute average) into the particular RRA
database file the ds is using.
This is a problem, as it causes the Alarm() routine to send a trap.
This explains the false alarms I was seeing every 50 hours for each
datasource I was graphing. Otherwise, people not using monitor-thresholds
won't notice, because one dropped sample isn't noticeable and the
data appears to be collected fine in the logfile. You can see the
missed entry by doing a rrdtool dump of the .rra file in question.
I'm not sure that this is a Cricket problem per se, but I just wanted
to see if anybody had run across it and has a solution or workaround,
as well as to warn you that this problem exists.
Take care,
