Odd.  Is the blank section EXACTLY (within 5 minutes) between 9am and 5pm,
or just approximate?

Are you getting updates for your client data?  Check out the [vmstat]
section both inside and outside of the 9-5 range, and see if they look
different.

Perhaps during business hours, there is a process that runs, or a general
increase in load, that increases the numbers in the vmstat output, such
that the columns are no longer aligned the same.  I know that there is at
least one Xymon client data parser that fail if the columns aren't aligned
as  expected (procs, perhaps).
