Hi Chris: Usually it should come up with the new name. The data which Ganglia collects is actually stored on the headnode's /var/lib/ganglia/rrds/ so you might take a look at that dir and see if you want to clear/rename those files.

So, hi all. First, I have a grid. So far so good. The grid has grid elements or clusters, 3 to be precise. Each has a name which is defined in the gmond.conf's for each node as well as the data_source statement in the gmetad.conf file. And they show up on the Web pages generated by gmetad as they are defined. Well, sort of. They did as orginially defined. But I decided I wanted to change the cluster names; I wanted to remove some redundancy and make things more clear. Fine. Ganlia seems to have other ideas. I changed all the gmond.conf's. I shut down ALL of ganglia on all 3 clusters. I even deleted the old data from /var/lib/ganglia/rrds for the old names I no longer wanted. I started everything back up. The old names are still there. All my work has gone for naught. Clearly ganglia has those old names stashed away somewhere I haven't located yet. Interestingly enough, I did manage to change one of the cluster's names once. Do you think I can do it twice? Apparently not. So, any suggestions as to how to change a cluster name or where that nasty old data is located would be very much appreciated. Thank you. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------- Chris Johnson |Internet: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Systems Administrator |Web: http://www.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/~johnson NMR Center |Voice: 617.726.0949 Mass.
