prashant- there are two way to go here.
1.) just make your webserver gmond "mute" by adding the line mute on to you /etc/gmond.conf file. when the gmond is mute is will stop talking on the multicast channel and will not appear in the list of hosts. 2.) don't run gmond locally but rather plug gmetad into a remote gmond. to do this change you /etc/gmetad.conf data source to point to the new remote machine. keep in mind that the remote machine will have to "trust" your web server. to do that.. add the following line to the remote machines /etc/gmond.conf trusted_hosts <web server ip> or if you are on a secure net all_trusted on will allow any host to get the info from gmond. good luck! -matt Today, Prashant Bhamidipati wrote forth saying... > From: Prashant Bhamidipati <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: [email protected] > Date: Thu, 14 Aug 2003 13:05:52 -0500 > Subject: [Ganglia-general] Gmetad > > Hello. > > Can I have only a gmetad running on my webserver and no gmond ? > > I had both running on my webserver, but since it is not important that > my webserver be monitored by a gmond, I tried to shut it off .
