Ok so i understand my problems now.
I didn't really undersatnd the functions of both the rredefinitions.cfg and the graph.cfg
Graph.cfg gives the configuration of how to set up your gaphs and how they look. rrddefinitions.cfg configures how the rrd file will be created and what parameters it will use for example how often it will poll and how long you keep the info.
My mistake was i added the graph information in the rrddefinitions.cfg file and therefore new rrd files weren't being created. we reverted back to the default rrddefiniitions files and everything started graphing.

these entries are also in rrddefinitions.cfg

I'm having some promlems with alot of my host not being able to create graphs
Here is the rotating cyle with many different hosts in rrd-data.log
