I ran 'postmaster -t .'on rrdtool this morning and that did resolve the = issue of the jobs just hanging and never exiting. So now the graphs are = output correctly, which means cacti pages load properly and the server = doesn't end up with a load average over 40.=20 But the rrd files themselves aren't being updated. They stopped being = updated last night, probably around when I noticed this and = rebuilt/reinstalled rrdtool. If an older version of rrdtool tried to = write to the newer files (I accidentally installed 1.2 over 1.4 since I = mistakenly assumed rrdtool without a version number was 1.0) would that = damage them to where they could not be written to by 1.4?=20 Never mind.

This may be resolved. I ran portmaster -t in net-mgmt/cacti and = net-mgmt-spine and now the rrd files and the resulting display graphics = are updating.
