good, your data is still there and you could get it reported by manually
changing the "m" parameter in the url to whatever metric you are interested on
looking at.

this list is generated dynamically and uses the first host of the cluster
assuming that if it is there it is in all other nodes and that all nodes have
the same set of metrics.

this usually works fine, even if it is definitely buggy and will be a source
of surprises now that 3.1 encourages custom metrics which could be missing
from the list or be in the list and selectable even if the node doesn't have
it (generating a broken link)

check why the fist host in your cluster output (telnet 127.0.0.1 8651 in your
gmetad) doesn't have all the metrics defined (maybe gmetric is not being
called there anymore after the reboot) or restart your gmond until the first
host has them all.

don't reboot your clusters ;)
