[Ganglia-developers] Disk IO as gmond core metric

2014-01-20 Thread Joseph Holsten
Anyone know what would be involved in reviving the patch from long ago adding disk io to the core metrics?[1] I see that there's something similar for solaris[1], but digging around in the solaris impl[2] shows this is coming from a kstat_read(3KSTAT), so that isn't going to work for linux.

[Ganglia-developers] Adding chef cookbook to github org

2014-02-24 Thread Joseph Holsten
There's a small but active group of people who are using forks of this unmaintained cookbook: https://github.com/hw-cookbooks/ganglia We're considering creating a public fork to merge our efforts, and I thought it might be nice to have it be part of the https://github.com/ganglia org.

I'm in, especially to help with the boring support, testing c stuff. Btw, has anyone played with the source recipe on deb platforms? I'm still running the ancient package that Ubuntu precise ships, and would love to upgrade. -- ~j On 2014-03-06, at 05:54, Ben Hartshorne
