Hello,
I am new to ganglia and had a question about the capabilities of ganglia. Is
it possible for remote devices to push their stats to a another system at a set
public ip address. The scenario I have is:
Boxes all over the country without multicast access. They are at client
locations. Some will have public ip addresses, but most won't. Furthermore,
they may be behind firewalls or routers. I want to load the monitor daemon on
them. Then have one server that would collect the stats of the monitored
systems for central display and tracking. I have a t-1 and plenty of public ips
to dedicate to the the server side of this.
With that scenario, would ganglia be capable of providing its functionality in
an environment where we cannot rely on the ability to initiate a connection to
the monitored systems. But must instead have the monitored systems report their
status to to the ganglia server.
I believe this is a simple question, and I am sure it can be answered easily. I
just want to know if ganglia fits my needs, or should I continue to look
elsewhere.
Thank You,
David Sumner
