If you create a new site then per default now two rules are created that switch to the new RRD format per default. Only one RRD file per service will be created. This save IO operations and bandwidth.
Existing sites are not affected. You can switch to single RRDs by creating rules in Configuration of RRD databases of hosts and Configuration of RRD databases of services for that purpose. After that run cmk --convert-rrds for migrating existing RRDs.
