Hi Johnston:
This is weird - as far as I know, the Ganglia OSCAR package is only
conflicting because you have a previous RPM version of Ganglia
installed. Can you post the conflict message here?
Also, check the RPM repository for any ganglia installation is a good
idea:
rpm -qa | grep ganglia
(do this on the headnode and all other nodes).
Cheers,
Bernard

Bernard,
Well, the problem is that I didn't use the RPM's to install it.
I did the old 'make install' instead. I did try the rpm -e command, but
it doesn't see it in the repository. Would I have to go in and manually
uninstall it? Thanks again!
Mike

Hi Mike:
Okay so I assume that you want to un-install the ganglia version
which you currently have installed on the system.
How did you install it in the first place? How many nodes do
you have ganglia running?
On the headnode, it is easy to uninstall - simply do:
rpm -e ganglia-monitor-core-gmetad
rpm -e ganglia-oscar-monitor-core-gmond
rpm -e ganglia-webfrontend
However, I'll need to know more about your current setup to
advise on how to uninstall ganglia off of the rest of your cluster.
Cheers,
Bernard

Well, the reason that I want to use the Oscar version is
because it's newer then what I have. How would you go about
uninstalling it though? Thank you for the responses. :-)

Hi Mike:
When you install OSCAR, there is a step which lets you
choose what packages are installed by default - you can unselect Ganglia
and it won't be installed.
Alternatively, what you can do is uninstall the
installed Ganglia (make sure you keep your configuration files), install
OSCAR (with Ganglia), then simply copy over the old configuration and
restart the daemons.
Either way will work.
Cheers,
Bernard

Subject: [Ganglia-general] Uninstalling Ganglia for

I love Ganglia and couldn't live without it! My problem
is that I'm trying to install Oscar and it already has Ganglia built
into it. When I try and do the server install it tells me that I have a
"Conflict" of versions. I can't seem to find a way to uninstall Ganglia
off my cluster automatically. Is there such a way? I'd appreciate any
advice. Thanks again!
Mike
