[Orca-users] Changing the Y scale

[David Michaels]

I've seen this as well.

I believe the cause of it has to do with the fact that your new server 
doesn't have any rrd runq data that's substantially over 1.0, so the 
mechanism in orca that guesses at the best scale makes the assumption 
that your runq values are between 0 and 1.

What I would do, if there's no orcallator.cfg config option otherwise, 
is run a recursive script or something that would artificially inflate 
the runq for an hour or so.  Let orca capture that.  Then kill the 
script.  Future scales might be okay, then.

But there's got to be (or there ought to be) a way to force the units / 
representation in the graphs.
