If you meant to say 'data template' and not 'data graph', the answer would be no.

The graph template is simply a method for viewing the existing data within an rrd file, so it can be adjusted at any time within the parameters of the data in the rrd file.

If you change a data template, it cannot update the existing rrd files. You would either have to recreate it, or possibly use 'rrdtool tune' to adjust the properties of the existing rrd file.

But be warned: not every parameter can be change using rrdtool tune. E.g. STEP won't work
