I gave what Matt suggested a try and found that gmetad does not appear to be
getting the data often enough and as a result the summary data appears to be
inconsistent.  I have a screen shot and it shows that the number of cpus in
the graph keeps changing, but the screen shot is too big to include in the
email.  Do you have any suggestions on how to fix this?

 

Thanks,

 

 -Eric

if you cannot increase the mcast_ttl and pass multicast over a router,

then you will need to use gmetad.

 

all you need to do is at the remote gmond at as a data source in the

gmetad configuration (/etc/gmetad.conf) and gmetad will poll the data

from the remote gmond via TCP (unicast).  this negates the need to

multicast altogether.

 

let me know if this doesn't solve the problem.
