=head1 DESCRIPTION
The tune option allows you to alter some of the basic configuration
values stored in the header area of a Round Robin Database (B<RRD>).
-One application of the B<tune> function is to relax the
+One application of the B<tune> function is to relax the
validation rules on an B<RRD>. This allows to fill a new B<RRD> with
data available in larger intervals than what you would normally want
to permit. Be very careful with tune operations for COMPUTE data sources.
Alter the number of confidence bound violations that constitute a failure for
purposes of the FAILURES B<RRA>. This must be an integer less than or equal to
the window length of the FAILURES B<RRA>. This restriction is not verified by
-the tune option, so one can reset failure-threshold and window-length
+the tune option, so one can reset failure-threshold and window-length
simultaneously. Setting this option will reset the count of violations to 0.

This option causes the aberrant behavior detection algorithm to reset
for the specified data source; that is, forget all it is has learnt so far.

Due to the implementation of this option, there is an indirect impact on
other data sources in the RRD. A smoothing algorithm is applied to
of smoothing is not data source specific. This means that utilizing
reset for one data source will delay running the smoothing algorithm
for all data sources in the file. This is unlikely to have serious

and 'through' to 10'000 seconds which is a little over one day in data.rrd.
This would allow to feed old data from MRTG-2.0 right into
RRDtool without generating *UNKNOWN* entries.
