Hey all,
I recently swapped out my Arch laptop's hard disk drive for a solid-state drive, and have been changing kernel and fstab parameters to maximize performance / minimize wear and tear on the SSD. These include the noatime and discard fstab flags, as well as the elevator=noop kernel parameter.
I have to think that relatedly, Monitorix has started recording NaN values for my system load averages and usages, as well as for the active processes, and the memory allocation. Top shows that there is indeed 1, 5, and 15 minute load averages. Ps aux returns active processes. Free tells me seemingly-accurate memory information.
So I have empty Monitorix graphs for my load averages, active processes, and memory allocation, which is a bummer.
Any thoughts on how I can get monitorix to display values in these graphs again?
Happy to provide whatever output / configurations would be useful.
Update: Other possible rabbit holes:
I fuddled with enabling hibernation on my laptop, but came to the conclusion (after some major video corruption and a hung reboot) that it wouldn't work with my legacy radeon video card using open source drivers
I had some difficulty mounting my iPhone using iFuse. This seemed to fix itself after a reboot and hasn't given me problems since, although lsmod doesn't show anything named "fuse" is loaded
I upgraded lots of packages the evening before (log below), then suspended, only to reboot earlier today, so it's possible that one of the upgrades broke or is otherwise interfering with Monitorix' system.rrd functionality

Did you look at http://www.monitorix.org/documentation.html#7
the sections pertaining to Graphs and the following about load
Can't tell without more info but its a place to start
Offline
As far as I can tell, that section largely discusses how to set up an "alert" script to run under certain specified conditions, and doesn't actually discuss the system.rrd logging, which should just sort of happen normally.
The "system" graph is enabled ('y' in the monitorix.conf file) and actually shows graphs on my localhost:8080/monitorix, just those graphs contain -nan for every entry.
And, as mentioned, I'm happy to provide more info, but I'm not sure what info to provide.

As per mikaku's observations, I downgraded rrdtool from 1.5.3-1 back down to 1.4.9-1, and the graphs have returned.
Marking as [Solved], reason ostensibly rrdtool-Monitorix version compatibility issues
