Hi,

I have removed the symlink and replaced it with a null mount, so there  
are no symlinks on the way anymore. However the error persists.

I have a guess here, all my "rrd_update" calls, are made to the real  
path and all my "rrd_graph" calls are made to the symlink/null mount  
path.

Looks like rrdcached is internally saving the full path of the  
"rrd_update" files, and flushes those files only if the flush command  
sends exactly the same path -- is that true? If so, that explains all  
my problems.

Thanks,
Eduardo Bragatto.
