Hello, with the install documentation, I cannot have ganglia running on Tru64. I missed something...
[ We have at IAP, ganglia fine installed on a small cluster : http://clix.iap.fr:8080/ganglia-webfrontend/index.php on Mandrake linux through clic : it was a one step install ] Now I want to have the same on a few DIGITAL Tru64. One of these Tru64 will have also the Ganglia Web Frontend. By browsing at the doc, It is not clear what I have to do. QUESTION 1 : Could one confirm that what need to done is the following : 1- install web+php on one source "that host the web" [collector] 2- install rrd on all the sources [ including the collector ] 3- install ganglia-monitor-core-2.5.3 4- configure the /etc/gmond.conf on all sources 5- configure the /etc/gmetad.conf on source [collector] 6- start gmond on all sources 7- start gmetad on the source [collector] ===================================================================== Actually, I have installed the gmond + gmetad + webfrontend only on 1 node QUESTION 2 : what is wrong with gmond ??? or gmetad ??? gmond returns data for CPU usage : [ encoded 8 XDR bytes ... ] but also errors like : mcast_thread() error multicasting gmetad seems to run... at least I can "telnet machine 8651" and get XML stuff, but it says : "data_thread() got not answer from any [DEC Alpha] datasource" After having donne this, I have gmond + gmetad running on the source "web" [collector], but something is wrong, and I cannot figure it out : seems to be the "mcast_xxx" things. Starting gmetad returns : ./gmetad/gmetad.init start Starting GANGLIA gmetad: Setting the debug level to 10 Datasource = [DEC Alpha] Polling interval for DEC Alpha is 15 sec.
