On a few occasions graphs would have no data for some devices. Nuking all of the RRD files and starting that device over for data would 'fix' it, but I loose all historical data. Now I have a dozen or so Linux servers that I am getting blank graphs for. Running poller.php for the devices manually shows data being received and I note no errors. Nuking the RRD files does not fix it though. Might be able to dig in and, maybe, but I have just don't have the time to f*@!k with it - need something I can rely on - used to use Cacti and it was great but a pain setting up new devices. Observium is great and very easy to setup new devices, but this problem that keeps popping up causing historical data loss to fix - or as now, that does not even fix, is not something I can mess with anymore. I do like Observium overall and don't like having to switch away from it, but need the data and something reliable for ourselves and our clients....
I've never seen anything like this happen, and I've seen some pretty fucked up installations!
What exactly happens? Do devices spontaneously lose all of the existing data, do they stop recording data after a while? Is it /every/ graph, or just some?
The only thing I can think of immediately to cause this would be if Observium somehow got a broken date far into the future, which caused rrd to refuse to accept any new data until that point. That would only break code which sends a specific date though, like the ports code.
