Ok so i understand my problems now. <BR>
 <BR>
I didn't really undersatnd the functions of both the rredefinitions.cfg and the graph.cfg<BR>
 <BR>
Graph.cfg gives the configuration of how to set up your gaphs and how they look.<BR>
rrddefinitions.cfg configures how the rrd file will be created and what parameters it will use for example how often it will poll and how long you keep the info. <BR>
 <BR>
My mistake was i added the graph information in the rrddefinitions.cfg file and therefore new rrd files weren't being created. we reverted back to the default rrddefiniitions files and everything started graphing. <BR> <BR>
