Cacti - Stopped graphing one device

[Shawn Badger]

Since nobody else chimed in, I guess I will. Just to let you know, I don't
use Cacti, instead I use Zabbix to do the same thing (and more). Does Cacti
have a function to disable a device if can't pole it for what ever reason?
It may simply be disabled, but I would think it would re enable itself again
once it could talk to the device again. Could the SNMP group or permissions
change for that group during the upgrade and when you added the "new" device
into Cacti you used a different group?  Does Cacti have any logging that may
say what is going on?

Just some basic things I would check for and I am sure you have already been
down this same path, but I thought I would offer anyway.
