Traffic Totals - Incorrect totals in Month view

[tvaldes]

I'm running on 2.4.4-RELEASE-p3 (amd64) and the Traffic Totals for the month so far are incorrect.
The totals have been accurate up until this month.

The Daily view shows what I expect but the Monthly doesn't add up.

Here's the Daily view

And here's the Monthly view

I restarted the vnstat service and notived that the monthly totals has increased a bit
I don't know when this increased happened.

Since the daily counts look correct, is there a way to have it reread it's daily totals and rebuild the monthly totals?

I tried "--rebuildtotal" from the command line but that didn't seem to do anything

Here are my latest totals

daily

monthly

Did you perhaps change the start day value for the monthly totals? I know when I changed mine it changed the totals, especially if it does not align with your start of the month of day 1.

@pwnell yes it was.. now sure why, but it was changed to the 15th.
Is there a way to have it rebuild its monthly calculation?

[pwnell]

Not as far as I am aware. The only option I know of is

vmstat -u

But that updates all the DB entries. AFAIK the only way would be to manipulate the RRD database directly - not sure how feasible that is but it should be possible in theory.

There is one way you can do it. Do this:

vnstat --exportdb

edit the output to correct the month values from the dailies (you will have to do this manually)

reimport with:

vnstat --importdb

Did not try it but could work...
