If your highest resolution will be 5 minutes averages, I suggest you set
the step size to 300 seconds.
Updating your rrd database every second is a major overkill. You would
ofcourse need to make a script
That averages 300 values before it is put into the database.


You want the heartbeat of your DS's to be bigger than 1 second, to
prevent updates being just out of time. Rule of the thumb: 2 times the
step size.

You're RRA's have a small mistake:

Make that 6 * 300 = 1800 in the second line, 3600 in the third line, 3 *
3600 in the fourth line, etc.
