Hi Keith
Your internal field name is memused.
Is that correct for all the rrd files?This is the field name as defined in the rrd file. 
Check how the rrd file is created, or use rrdtool dump with some creative grep to confirm the field names.

Do you get a graph without the EXFNPATTERN keyword? (A long shot, but might be worth checking)

If you know the rrd files in advance, and you know the number of them, and it will not change, then why not define them manually.It's a little more of a pain up front, but it might save you a lot of grief.Check [users], [vmstat*] or [netstat*] in graphs.cfg for examples.

I have three rrds: ProcMBIM.rrd, ProcSA.rrd, and ProcOI.rrd
The definition I have in graphs.cfg is
FNPATTERN ^Proc(.+).rrd                NOTE: also tried (.*) - no differenceEXFNPATTERN ^ProcMem(.*).rrd    NOTE: for one specific rrd created i don't wantTITLE Process Memory UsageYAXIS Total Memory UsageDEF:p at RRDIDX@=@RRDFN@:memused:AVERAGELINE2:p at RRDIDX@#@COLOR@:@RRDPARAM at -b 1024-X0GPRINT:p at RRDIDX@:LAST: \: %5.1lf (cur)GPRINT:p at RRDIDX@:MAX: \: %5.1lf (max)GPRINT:p at RRDIDX@:MIN: \: %5.1lf (min)GPRINT:p at RRDIDX@:AVERAGE: \: %5.1lf (avg)

I get a graph in trends, but ONLY for MBIM. SA and OI not shown.
I get NO graph on the page itself.
So any help appreciated - I imagine I must be missing something to cause these two issues.
