Hi Brad,
One minor bug would be that the gmetrics link is no longer visible in the
host view. Not sure if this is because I have done anything wrong, but
it's pretty much a vanilla install.
Not sure if this is intentional with the introduction of the python
modules.
kind regards,
Marc van Kerkhoven

Re: [Ganglia-general] [Ganglia-developers] [ANNOUNCEMENT] Ganglia 3.1.0
tarball ready fortesting...
It has been two weeks since the announcement of the availability of the
Ganglia 3.1.0 testing tarball. Since that time, I haven't seen any
reports of showstopper issues. Unless there are any objections or
critical bug reports that have not yet been reported, I propose that we
release the 3.1.0 tarball as first official release of the Ganglia 3.1.x
series.
Comments? Votes?
