I would suggest running 1 extra gmond 'master' somewhere, and let all other gmond's unicast to that particular gmond.

Then you have one gmond who knows all, and use that gmond to poll from your gmetad.

I'm in the process of installing this package on a distributed web
network.  It's FreeBSD all around, and the nodes are installed from the
ports collection (FreeBSD 4.1 and Ganglia 3.0.1_2).  Since multicast is
not an option, I've been setting up the nodes as unicast.  Other than
that, the configuration is pretty much stock.

Relevant bits:

gmetad:
data_source "Web" 15 localhost 202.157.xx.xx 212.100.xx.xx
65.39.xx.xx ...

gmond:
cluster { name = "Web"}

udp_send_channel{
 host = gmetad_host
 port = 8649
}

udp_recv_channel {
 port = 8649
}


I also removed reporting of some metrics that are erronious on BSD
anyway.  All the nodes are using exactly the same config file.

I can telnet to the hub from the unconnected nodes, and can telnet from
the hub to the nodes.

Does anyone have any ideas as to why I can only get three nodes to
register for the web front end?

Thanks.
