I've got one barrier to rolling out our network's new RRD-based collection
and turning down the backup MRTG logfile-based collectors: when using MRTG
to collect the data into the RRDs, failure to collect on one host in the
config file stops processing for the entire config. This is a problem
when, say, and interface moves or an IP address changes. With traditional
MRTG, if that interface can't be collected against, it's values aren't
written, but the other configured collections are populated. Not so with
MRTG, using RRD as the backend. If one collection fails, all subsequently
configured collections also fail.

Is there any way around this or is this a bug?
