And for some reason the other box (*with* the standard setup)
didn't upgrade the RRD shared libs with the 'make install'.
So I had to do that by hand. Watch out for that.

It is indeed effective, though I ended up chasing a problem where
AVG and MAX values at the top of the graph weren't updating, but
that turns out to be the %f->%lf problem, and that I was editing
a grapher.cgi that wasn't getting loaded in public_html.

Again, just do a 'rrdtool dump rrdfile.rrd > /tmp/somefile' and
look for something like:

!-- 2000-01-12 00:05:00 PST --> <row><v> 1.0000000000e+00 </v><v> 1.0007666667e+00 </v><v> 1.0100000000e+00 </v></row>
<!-- 2000-01-12 00:10:00 PST --> <row><v> NaN </v><v> NaN </v><v> NaN </v></row>
<!-- 2000-01-12 00:15:00 PST --> <row><v> 1.0000000000e+00 </v><v> 1.0007000000e+00 </v><v> 1.0100000000e+00 </v></row>

And check this against normal.N, where collector is able to pull a datasource
value.

Take care,
