Hi Rich,
Thank you for your quick response.
I am using hobbit-4.2.0.
I have no red alerts.
Green: bbd,bbgen,bbtest,conn,cpu,disk,hobbitd,http,info,memory,msgs*,trends
Grey: files,ports,procs
Note I did have to make /var/log/messages 660 and root.hobbit for it to be
read.
I get nothing in the logs. After deleting all logs, and stopping and
starting hobbit, and waiting 20 minutes, I get this:

So if you tail rrd-data.log and rrd-status.log you don't see any messages
that indicate any failure in the rrd process?
Does the Hobbit web display show any red alerts indicating that a rrd
process crashed?
Which release of Hobbit are you running?

I've been using BB/Hobbit with RRDtool for, I guess at least 5 years,
maybe more. I've installed it successfully on maybe 10 servers. Things
certainly got easier with Hobbit compared to BB!
I've just installed Hobbit on a Centos 5.2 box and for the life of me I
can't work out why my RRDs aren't getting updated (they are always created
during first run, but never updated). I've grepped every log, history file,
etc I can find and can find no hints. Can someone suggest where to look for
errors or problems to do with *updating* the RRDs?
Everything is stock, I haven't touched the bb-hosts file, indeed anything
really...

Extra info... The RRDs are created when hobbit is first run
