[smokeping-users] Smokeping Graphs not being drawn correctly

[Peter Kristolaitis]

I strongly suspect that you're polling too many targets for a 60-second 
interval as you have configured.

Check your smokeping logs for a message like "polling did not complete 
within the step time" or something similar -- I can't recall the exact 
error message.  What that message means is that you have too many 
targets configured on a single probe instance, and it's not able to ping 
all the targets within your 'step' time.

You can rectify this by either adding additional (parallel) probe 
instances, or by increasing your step time, or by reducing the number of 
checks per step.   Note, however, that the last 2 options require you to 
manually reconfigure your RRD files with the new parameters (or delete 
the existing RRDs and lose all historical data).
