I've been using ganglia for a couple of months. In this time it has been great. I set it up so that I would gather the information at longer intervals of 15 minutes between polls. This has been working great!
A couple of days ago, I started gmond on 30 nodes of a cluster. I was already monitoring 3 of those nodes. The data has been slow to join the summary information. Could this be because I changed the polling intervals? I would think that the nodes that I added would all show up at the same time. Instead, a new node joins the summary information about every 4 hours. Why is this? It is about every four hours that graphs appear for the nodes, as well. I can see the graphical representation for all of the nodes, but they lead to a page with no collected data for the node. The XML data is sending the information for all of the nodes, but the Gmetad doesn't seem to be collecting the information as expected. Why does it take so long to collect the data?
