Hi there,

Memory graphs require the DigitalOcean monitoring agent to be installed on your Droplet:

https://docs.digitalocean.com/products/monitoring/how-to/install-metrics-agent/

The basic CPU graph works without it, but RAM, disk, and other metrics need the agent running.

Install it with:

curl -sSL https://repos.insights.digitalocean.com/install.sh | sudo bash

After that, give it a few minutes and the memory graph should show up in your Droplet’s monitoring tab.
