Our network group does not appreciate udp multicast. Therefore, I need
to go unicast. I want to install gmond on 500 linux boxes and have
/etc/gmond.conf be a symlink to an nfs mounted central file. In order
for unicast to work I have to set:
udp_send_channel {
host = hostname-of-the-node
port = 8649
}
such that gmond will send itself metric data. When I set
host=localhost, the web gui shows 'localhost' as the host name. No
surprise here. I want to avoid having to hand edit 500 local copies of
gmond.conf. It would be much better for gmond to use the hosts name has
hostname. Does anyone have a trick to use?
