Best is to actually use it.  If not for actually using it on
a dynamically built html page then at least use it to check
the output against obvious errors.

123x123 is on stdout so ONLY redirect stdout.
For sh, bash and alike, and even for windows:
   rrdtool graph ...whatever...  1>/dev/null

Do NOT redirect stderr to /dev/null.  *If* something
fails, you want to know.  Only discard stderr if
you have to work around a known issue.
