[rrd-users] Counter reset to zero question

[Jack Tavares]

I am using rrdtool to collect some metrics.
They are COUNTER doing AVERAGE CF and I am
graphing them as a rate.

when the box gets reset, the counters go to zero.
and then start to rise again.

Reading the documentation, it appears that rrd 
thinks this is a "roll-over" and my graph shows
a huge spike.

I can set a MAX value when computing the CDEF, but 
I was wondering if there was a better way to do this?

thanks
