Instead of cluttering the main ganglia program with this, it might be
better to write a separate application that periodically polls a
gmond/gmetad and parses the XML data to look for potential problems.

In my opinion, this is the proper place since it would act more like a
client tool that uses the collected data, similar to the webfrontend
viewer.

My personal choice would be a Nagios plugin that could return both host and/or cluster status. I have it on my plate to write one, if it ever makes it higher than the mass of other things on my plate these days......

I did some hacking back in, oh, Ganglia 2.4 or something, to add
monitoring capabilities to gmetad, but my patch didn't make it into
the source tree (pending Ganglia 3).

I still think this is an important missing feature to make Ganglia
really useful in day-to-day system administration.
