Returning to this old thread as I ran into this issue today.

I need some help/suggestions to figure out why my "cpu load" and "users & processes" graphs stop updating about 24 hours after the systems reboot. The updates stop for anywhere from 12 to 24 hours, then simply start back up again. Only the "CPU load" and the "Users and Processes" graphs are having the problem; disk, memory, cpu utilization, network traffic don't miss a beat.
The only explanation I can come up with is that the format of some of the "cpu" status message is different for the first 24 hours after a reboot. Could you send me an example of the cpu status shortly after a reboot, and one when the graphs are working ? What OS are these boxes ?
Running openSUSE 11.1 (x86_64).
Client output that does not update the rrd:
[top] top - 14:39:44 up 1 day, 4:40, 3 users, load average: 2.42, 2.88, 2.89
Client output that does update the rrd:
[top] top - 14:42:51 up 40 days, 2:41, 3 users, load average: 4.19, 3.61, 3.10
The only difference I can see is "day" instead of "days".
