Okay, So i have figured it out. I was doing everything correctly as far as the 
migration of zenoss goes. The procedure outlined in the FAQ 
http://community.zenoss.org/trac-zenpacks/wiki/CommunityFAQGeneral#CanImigratefromaVMWareAppliancetoaZenossCorenativeinstall
works like a charm. 

The issue was with a zenpack that works correctly when running on the VM 
Appliance version but not when it is running on the Native install versions of 
Zenoss.

The Zenpack that i had issues with was the WMIPerformaceMonitor Zenpack.
The "graphing issue" I had with this Zenpack was apparently a data collection 
issue. To fix this issue I had to:

Edit $ZENHOME/Products/WMIPerformanceMonitor/libexec/wmi_stats.pl
and replace Line 12 with:


Code:
$cmd = “/usr/local/zenoss/common/bin/wmic -U â�...@argv[3]‘%’@ARGV[4]‘ 
//@ARGV[2] “;



Also you need to make sure that the server you are running zenoss on has a 
program called WMIC installed. This Zenpack uses WMIC as the client that 
queries Microsoft Windows WMI "database".


If you are having data collection issues with the WMIPerformanceMonitor Zenpack 
my suggestion is to:

1.) make sure you have WMIC installed.
2.) make sure you have a Windows user account and password specified in the 
zWinUser and the zWinPassword boxes in the zProperties tab of the device class 
you are using WMI to monitor.
3.) the user account you specify must have sufficient permissions to query the 
WMI database on all devices in that class.

If you have done all of the above and you are still having issues try the 
following:

1.) Open the $ZENHOME/Products/WMIPerformanceMonitor/libexec/wmi_stats.pl file 
in a text editor.
2.) Comment out line 12 and replace with the above mentioned code.

Thanks to mray and jmp242 for all the help.
