So you're using that plugin, ok.

Two RRD files called dell_om_temp and dell_om_fan. Both with values.
Let's look into the graph plugin....
$def = rrdtool_get_def($data, "value");`
OK, this is a problem. The graph plugin wants to see a rrd file labelled
value and you have called yours dell_om_temp

Every program has it quirks, some of them are downright annoying.
My vote for the most annoying quirk in JFFNMS is this error message. The
archive is filled with it.
So first thing, the message is wrong, think of it saying "I tried to
graph something and something went wrong" and you're much closer. It
could be the RRD files are not created but it can be a million other
things.
One thing it could be is it cannot find the RRDfile labelled value.
We know that for this interface type we don't have it.
Two solutions.
Copy the sensors plugin and rewrite that line so it looks for what you
called the field
or
Go into your interface types fields and rename the temperature field to
value. Also change your poller definition so its name is value too.
I would also make a new field called show_celcius (its not a RRD file)
as the plugin looks for that.
In addition for the switch statement to work the interface name has
to have the name "temp" in it. For the fan you will need fan in the
name.
Hrm, now you have a problem! Both times it expects a RRD file called
value and you have two RRD files for one interface (they use a separate
interface for the HostMIB, a good idea as you get a red fan or red
temperature symbol rather than a red generic environment alarm)
So you could split them out to two different interface types or
re-write the plugin.
If I was doing this:
* I'd split them out into two interface types
* Re-write a temperature graph plugin as you need to divide by 10 to get
the true value, use temperature.inc.php as a template except
"CDEF:temperature=temp_c,".(($far==1)?"1.8,*,32,+":"1,*")
becomes
"CDEF:temperature=temp_c,".(($far==1)?"0.18,*,32,+":"10,/")
* Re-write the fan plugin to do the same scaling.
