Hi everybody, I installed ganglia version core-2.5.6 on Fedora. I try to start Gmond and Gemetad also on the same machine. I started Gmond and it seems to be working fine. But when i start gmetad, although it seems to be working, i am not able to see any data getting logged at all. Gmond is using the default port number 8649 to send/receive multicast and also to listen XML requests.
I configured gmetad to have the data source as data_source "my_cluster" localhost:8649 and "var\lib\ganglia\rrds" as the path to store data, unfortunately there's no data there and there's no error data getting logged either. I debugged gemetad to see if there could be a problem with gmond and gmetad interfacing each other, in the gmetad.c file at the line hash_foreach(root.authority,do_root_summary,NULL) the do_root_summary function is being called, which means the hash buckets gets filled with some data, but somehow the from the next line hash_foreach(root.metric_summary,write_root_summary,NULL) the write_root_summary fucntion never gets called, b/c the buckets are always NULL. I don't understand what happens to data in btw.I would really appreciate any insight you could provide me, thanks a lot! Deniz
