we decided that we wanted the 5minave area to be huge (6 months) so that we
could search back to a specific time to get exact readings, not averages.

The only way to do that without losing current data was to resize it. I
tried just resizing to the final size but it graphed a large gap where the
new empty records were.

I will modify the script to check the size before it resizes so it won't
grow after the 6 month mark.

  I'm curious - why would you want to do this?  What is the advantage
of constantly changing the RRA size, vs. figuring out the "right" size
you would want and making it that size to start with?

  Just wondering,
