WARNING: configs/networkmap: ReadData: LINK procurve-3-procurve-4, target: /var/lib/hobbit/rrd/procurve-3/if_load.48.rrd:ds0:ds1 on config line 118 of configs/networkmap had no valid data, according to WeatherMapDataSource_rrd

We had an issue where data collection crashed.

I know about dumping it to /dev/null, but I have always considered that cludgey and you can run into other issues with it.   If there's no options in the program, I guess that's the best solution though.
