If you connected the Check_MK Micro Core to Carbon (Graphite) and the carbon server was down then the core would hang after a while in a very nasty long TCP timeout. This is been fixed. If carbon is too slow to handle all the data or if the server is hanging then Check_MK uses the available TCP buffer space for queing graph updates and skips then any further updates, while logging a message into cmc.log:
var/log/cmc.log
