I checked the data manually (dump) and everything seems fine ... define "gets stuck". Are you talking about a never-ending loop ? What version are you using? Tried another version? > In general, is there any possibility the rrdtool graph utility to get stuck > and if so, in what circumstances? In theory there shouldn't be a problem. In practice however there is *always* a chance of a bug. Try different durations. Try different end times. Try at different times. Perform your "rrdtool graph " command with the following parameters: "--end now --start end-360d" "--end now --start end-365d" "--end now --start end-370d" "--end '20021024 14:00' --start end-360d" "--end '20021024 14:00' --start end-365d" "--end '20021024 14:00' --start end-370d" "--end '20021024 15:00' --start end-360d" "--end '20021024 15:00' --start end-365d" "--end '20021024 15:00' --start end-370d" just before the whole hour, at the whole hour and just after the whole hour. Any differences? The time (both 14:00 and 15:00) should be adjusted so to match your local time, the previous whole hour and the next whole hour.
