Be carefull with the MaxBytes option. If you set MaxBytes too low you
lose al data above MaxBytes. I don't know what the effect is on data
that is already collected.

That may work - I don't think I've ever used unscaled graphs.  I kind of
like
having a constant scale to easily gauge % of utilization, especially if
I'm
looking through the graphs of multiple devices.  Ideally, I'd like to
set the
range for each graph (d/w/m/y), which I believe is currently controlled
by
maxbytes, and can only designated for the whole target, not the
individual
graph.

To tell the truth, I haven't experimented yet with simply setting
maxbytes to 24
and seeing what mrtg does to the m/y graphs.  I assume that it will just
plot
old values that were higher than 24 at the max of 24, rather than
letting the
graph scale larger.
