Hi, It would be nice to be able to easily monitor a group of machines on a network where machines can be seperated by routers that do not pass multicast packets. (of which one does not have administrative control... for example a cluster of workstations in different offices)
As I understand it, the only the first host in the "data_source" parameter of /etc/gmetad.conf is polled, and the following hosts are polled if the first on is down/unreachable. Perhaps a cluster could be alternatively defined as a list of hosts and the data from different hosts could be merged. By the way, thanks for the great monitoring tool. I am using the Debian Packages. My installation is accessible here if you are curious: http://wikihip.cern.ch/romu/ganglia/ ...
