O.K., let's try to make it clear:

1. 6 months ago I started the first rrd.
2. Today the second rrd starts.
3. To get a nice graph, I eliminate the "*UNKNOWN*"s. This will lead to 
an average calculation for over the last 12 months (if the graphs goes 
over 12 months), so I do a second CDEF.
4. This leads me to the situation (I guess it's like that, if not I'd be 
glad) that the average calculation starts today. I would like it to 
start 6 months ago, when the first rrd started. My guess comes from the 
behaviour of the aggregated graph, if things are different, I'd be fine.

Could you tell ?

Thanks a lot in advance and also for the help you gave already !
