Possibilty of renaming the rrd in mrtg

Hi,

I have created one firewall which consisted of two VRFs. Unfortunately, my mistake was that I created both VRFs by using the IP address instead of the FQFN. So what happened was that the interfaces from both VRFs are mapped with ipaddress_port.rrd which of course caused confusion as there were similar ports on both VRFs. Attached are screenshots which help to fully understand the situation.

To fix it, I can completely remove both VRFs and configure them with the FQDN instead (mapping from the hosts file) so to the cfg file in the mrtg folder will be fqdn_port.rrd

Is there a way to maybe rename the cfg? or else all that can be done is to completely reconfigure?

Rgds,

Really you need to delete this and re-run the Wizard if you want to re-name the rrd files, because there is a ton of variables in the MRTG config that would all need to change, and you would also have to somehow change all the existing rrd file and associated XML files.
