Does Ganglia support data sources other than gauges? I.e., where the data is not a fluctuating value that represents an entities value at a particular time (such as 'memory used'), but is a count of data that only ever increments (such as 'Octets received' on a network interface).
See the 'rrdcreate' man page from rrdtool if you're not sure what I'm talking about. I had a look at the XML output format in the documentation, which doesn't imply anything other than 'gauge' is supported, and all the pages at ganglia.mrcluster.org show graphs of gauges rather than clusters. So I assume the answer is 'no'. If that is the case, are there any plans to support counters with Ganglia?
