Hi Scott:

The different ip addresses showing in gmetad.conf is not the ip address
of the server running gmetad but instead one of the node (the headnode
of that subgroup, if you may), which runs gmond.

Check the syntax of the data_source tag, the ip/hostname listed there
refers to one or all the nodes in that subgroup/datasource.

Cheers,

Bernard
