Hello,

I'm a kind of beginner in RRD and I already have some problems. I have
created a few databases like that:

rrdtool create $PATH_DB/$FILE.rrd --step 360 \
    DS:in:COUNTER:300:U:U \
    DS:out:COUNTER:300:U:U \
    DS:in_disc:COUNTER:300:U:U \
    DS:out_disc:COUNTER:300:U:U \
    DS:in_err:COUNTER:300:U:U \
    DS:out_err:COUNTER:300:U:U \
    RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:1:600 \
    RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:6:700 \
    RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:24:775 \
    RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:288:797 \
    RRA:MIN:0.5:1:600 \
    RRA:MIN:0.5:6:700 \
    RRA:MIN:0.5:24:775 \
    RRA:MIN:0.5:288:797 \
    RRA:MAX:0.5:1:600 \
    RRA:MAX:0.5:6:700 \
    RRA:MAX:0.5:24:775 \
    RRA:MAX:0.5:288:797

After the data were collected, I saw the graph is interrupted. `rrdtool
fetch' says me:

As you can see, the graph is interrupted by UNKNOWN values. I tried many
times with different values for step (10,60,360 seconds) and for RRA
xff,steps,rows. Nothing changed! I know I'm missing something, but I
don't know what.
Another question: what is the role of xff (xfiles factor) in the
calculation; what is the formula?

Thank you for your time.
