No, port 8651 is the port "gmetad" listens on to answer requests. a) on the machine running "gmond" (gmond_host), do a telnet localhost 8649 Do you see any useful metric data reported? b) on the machine running "gmetad", do a telnet gmond_host 8649 Do you see the same as with a)? c) on the machine running "gmetad", do a telnet localhost 8651 You should see roughly the same output as b) > Further I specified that the ganglia installation use rrd.
