Thanks all. As a few of you mentioned the files have the shorter name during the dump. I have the script picking the most recent log entry to parse for displaying the numbers and modified it so it will find the shorter names (amdump.*) rather than, eg, (amdump.[0-9]) so MRTG will be charting data from the active log during the dump but will find and chart summary data once the dumps are finished.
