[Observium] Missing graph data

I had a problem with the machine Observium is running on. The CPU
fan/heatsink fell off. After I got the machine up again on the evening of
11 June, the CPU Temp graph showed normal temps in the 30-45 range for
months, then a big spike up to 115. (eek!) But at least the server came
back to life, and I still had all my data.

Everything still seems to be running OK, but all of a sudden there is now
no data at all in the CPU temp graph before ~1:00AM 12 June. From this
machine I get temp readings for CPU temp, Motherboard temp, and 4 other
"temp#" listings. "Temp1" and "Temp3" still seem to have the data they
should, but the others are missing.

One thing I did change after the recovery: I noticed the time zone on the
server was set to US Eastern, and I changed it to US Central. I would think
if that was the cause of my problem it would hit a lot more of the data.

Hey,

I've seen this on several machines that have rebooted, so the
processor have gotten a new id via SNMP. I think it would be that kind
of discovery that have caused it.

Regards,
Peter

Now that you mention that, it makes sense there could be a new processor
ID. There was a kernel update. That very well could cause that.

If the data is coming from lmsensors via SNMP, it's well known that things move around at reboots. You don't even really need to change anything!

If it's from the agent, well, that's more annoying!
