Hey Chris:

I assume that you are using different mcast ports for the different data sources.

Typically I find that if there are some errors with the metrics after I have done some modifications to the cluster (add/remove nodes) - I have to stop all the daemons (gmond/gmetad) and restart them. It usually takes some time before the data gets properly propagated and eventually the correct information shows up.

Hope this helps.

Cheers,

Bernard

I've got a set of three clusters (one with 3 computers, one with 7, one with 23) which I'm monitoring using Ganglia. While the summary information shown in the grid view is correct for the first two clusters, the number of hosts and CPUs shown for the third is wildly off (typically only a handful of hosts are listed as being up). However, when I take a look at the cluster view, the information for the third cluster is shown correctly.

The only thing different about this cluster is that because our routers aren't yet correctly set up to pass IGMP and multicast packets, the cluster is effectively partitioned into sub-clusters for gmond purposes. These sub-clusters vary in size between one and five hosts.

To handle this partitioning, I've got multiple data sources (one for each sub-cluster) set up in the web host's gmetad.conf. Would this be causing the incorrect values in the grid view? If so, why isn't it affecting the cluster view?

Cheers,

Chris
