Ian, Thanks for pointing the bug-report. Yes, that bug describes exactly what we are seeing. From the report it looks like the gmond has been fixed but the Web frontend/Gmetad has not been fixed yet. If we were to restart the Gmetad, I would assume that we would not be able to see the clusters (old) data since the collector gmond is down?

Utsav, This may be covered in this bug: http://bugzilla.ganglia.info/cgi-bin/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=39 If you don't want to see that cluster anymore, you could restart your gmetads. But then you lose access to your old data from the web.

Node A and Node B do not exist anymore. What's working/not-working: ----------------------------------------- The summary Gmetad on node D reports nodeA as down (correct). The Gmetad process on Node C shows Node A as up on summary page (wrong). However, it does report the last date of update as 1 week ago (nodes have been down since then). The Gmetad process on Node C shows Node A as down at the node level (correct). Any explanation will be helpful. Example output (for Node A and another node that is up) from telnet on Node C: ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------- <HOST NAME="Node A" IP="a.b.c.d" REPORTED="1132685684" TN="1134644" TMAX="20" DMAX="0" LOCATION="unspecified" GMOND_STARTED="1131061840"> <HOST NAME="Working Node" IP="w.x.y.z" REPORTED="1133820125" TN="212" TMAX="20" DMAX="0" LOCATION="unspecified" GMOND_STARTED="1130851765"> Thanks, Utsav. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------- Utsav Agarwal Systems Analyst eXcellence in IS Solutions (X-ISS) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------
