Please not the difference:

./nfsen -r live all
rebuilds the profile live including the graphs. Usually this is only required 
if you move/integrate data into another
server or if you experienced problems 'Disk full' etc.

If you add/delete sources to an NfSen instance you need to modify the %sources 
list in nfsen.conf and the run ./nfsen
reconfig. This is because modifying sources requires more administrative work.

If you only add a source, and rebuild life ( nfsen -r life all ) and forget to 
activate this new source ( ./nfsen
reconfig ), then new data is not collected. In the ps output you should see the 
collector running with appropriate cmd
line args.


        Hope this helps

Be nice to your netflow data. Use NfSen and nfdump :)
