I think this is a common issue with rrdtool and not specific to observium. When you reboot a device all the packet counters reset, since rrdtool is graphing the differences between the counters at each polling interval, you get a huge spike.
Check out removespikes.(pl|php) in the scripts directory, that will help get rid of them.
Cheers,
Tim.

We seeing once in while really huge peaks on some devices. In past we seen such when installing new device or/and doing maintenance on it. So we just ignore them in past, because they only broke graphs once in time.
Does anyone seeing this too? Basically this looks like huge peak (10-100G) for about 5-10 min(2 scans).
I've seen this on different devices, but all of them are Cisco afaik.
