This *is* the result.  I told to >>check<< the current options for
the database.  IOW do not show us the create statement, show us the
output of rrdtool tune.

The properties are:  DERIVE, heartbeat 600, min 0, max unlimited
This seems to be OK, apart from the unlimited of course.

This only displays.  To alter a RRD you *do* have to specify options.
Do so, then check your modifications by using rrdtool tune without
options again.

This is correct, you may want to use another target and verify the
results before you destroy your live data ...
