The default for RRD-files generated by Xymon is to get updates in 5
minute intervals.
To fix this you should define the RRD in the "rrddefinitions.cfg" file
and specify a different update interval. If you update it once every 15
minutes = 900 seconds, then you can copy most of the default setup in
that file, and just change the interval. Like this:

<br>
it appears that your data name is "trends". This is what
xymon is trying to match in rrddef.cvf. The key you should
be using in rrddef.cfg. <br>
<br>
[trends]<br>
-s 5
<div> RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:60:576</div>
<div> RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:360:576</div>
<div> RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:1440:576</div>
<div> RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:17280:576</div>
<br>
With that said, "trends" is already a column heading... I'm
not sure that using it for your rrd key won't cause other
problems in xymon. Maybe change it to "httpd_threads"?<br>
</div>
</div>
<br>
If that doesn't work, try putting the -s in the default section
"[]", and see if that works. You shouldn't leave it there as it
will set all future graphs to a 5 second step, but it works
there, then you know your problem is with your data name and
key.<br>
