Hello, I am having similar issues.
A gmetad is running on another host, monitoring a cluster. Its grid name is "GangliaGrid". I created a gmetad.conf on my laptop, with a tunnel to the remote host, forwarding its XML port (8652) to the localhost:8666. Telnet to localhost 8666 shows that the remote gmetad answers fine to queries like "/"... The local gmetad (on the laptop) uses in its conf: debug_level 1 setuid off gridname "LocalGrid" data_source "GangliaGrid" localhost:8666 trusted_hosts 127.0.0.1 xml_port 18651 interactive_port 18652 rrd_rootdir rrds Unfortunately I see only timeouts. Sources are ... Source: [GangliaGrid, step 15] has 1 sources 127.0.0.1 Data thread 140659923203840 is monitoring [GangliaGrid] data source 127.0.0.1 poll() timeout from source 0 for [GangliaGrid] data source after 0 bytes read If I use the same ganglia grid name in both gmetad's, gmetad dies immediately. Any idea what's going on? Best regards, Erich Am 23.06.2014 19:13, schrieb Rushton Martin: > I've just updated to ganglia 3.6.0 and am trying to get a "grid of > grids" configuration working.
