OK, so I put in the extra code and everything compiled without any issue, I
recompiled both the server and the client with the new code and now vmstat
data is being transmitted and the server is trying to graph the data,
however, it keeps giving me a blank graph and displays nan for the values of
the datapoints on the graph.  Am I missing something??  
Maybe, or I missed something when I wrote up that cookbook for you.
You did restart Hobbit after installing the new hobbitd_rrd and
hobbitd_client modules, I suppose?

It would probably help to get some debugging output from the 
hobbitd_rrd module. Do a "kill -USR2 <hobbitd_rrd PID>" and it will
start logging debugging output to the logfile. The next time your
Mac OS X client sends it's data, you should hopefully get some
info about what it tries to do. Repeat the kill-command to turn off
debugging.

(If you don't get anything in the hobbitd_rrd logfile, it's because the
client module doesnt send anything. So it fails to pickup the fact that
Mac OS X does have vmstat data now).
Will it not graph if the values do not add up exactly to 100%??
It will, it doesn't know anything about these numbers adding up to 100.
