yemi- david posted the solution to this list. it's so simple i wish i would have thought of it. just set your multicast interface to loopback.
add the line mcast_if "lo" to your /etc/gmond.conf. that will configure gmond to send all data to loopback... it will never hit the network. if you connect to gmond on port 8649 you'll get all the data for that host. i'm confident this will work for you. good luck -matt On Wed, 2004-01-28 at 17:31, Adesanya, Adeyemi wrote: > > if you hate multicast altogether for some reason, you can get > > around that too. > > > > set every gmond that you have to be both "deaf" and "mute". > > then every gmond running on every host will only know about > > itself. then use gmetad to pull all the data for your > > cluster together (gmetad uses a TCP connection to the data > > port of each gmond). you will need to manually specify every > > host in your cluster in the /etc/gmetad.conf as a data source. > > > > hope this helps. > > > > good luck! > > -matt > > > > Matt, > > I just tried setting my gmond to both "deaf" and "mute".
