Hello,
When my server needs rebooted and comes back online, all of the RAM values read 0%. Has anyone else seen this before?
For how long? This likely a SNMPd issue and not Observium itself.

Memory (RAM) is the only one that has that issue. Processor, network, and Storage are all OK.
SNMP or SNMPd?

If I remove and re-add the device, it will display normally. However, I would prefer to not do this for each device when the server needs rebooted.
I checked the SNMPd service and it was UP. I restarted it but it did not do anything.

This is an snmpd problem. It seems to be changing memory indexes on reboot, which is functionally braindead behaviour.
On reboot your memory statistics will be in a different place than where Observium expects them to be and won't be visible until the device is rediscovered (or removed and readded).
This is very irritating behaviour, bit thankfully not presented by many devices.
BTW, when reporting this kind of thing you should include more information, os, version, screenshot, etc.

To expand on what adam said, this will fix itself in a few hours when rediscovery runs.

I have a similar problem on Windows boxes. I'll have missing data for physical memory, but virtual mem will still be there. I'm overall pretty disappointed with the data Windows boxes give me, anyway. My CentOS server reports very nicely and doesn't appear to have this problem.
