Question #175552 on Graphite changed:
https://answers.launchpad.net/graphite/+question/175552

Aaron Sterr proposed the following answer:
I have tracked this problem down in my installation to use of symbolic
links in my metric storage.

METRIC NAME: carbon.agents.ny2-laa-005_dev_tradingscreen_com-a.committedPoints
TRUNCATED:    s.ny2-laa-005_dev_tradingscreen_com-a.committedPoints

The code that is truncating the name is in storage.py (in __init__)

  if real_fs_path != self.fs_path:
    relative_fs_path = self.metric_path.replace('.', '/') + self.extension
    base_fs_path = realpath(self.fs_path[ :-len(relative_fs_path) ])
    relative_real_fs_path = real_fs_path[ len(base_fs_path)+1: ]
    self.real_metric = relative_real_fs_path[ :-len(self.extension) ].replace('/', '.') 


Here are my install details:
