Did you specify different ports for each copy of gmond? This mean you will need 2 copies of gmetad.conf (port numbers are specified there), and depending on how you want it to work you will need to have 2 php web directories and set $ganglia_port = ???; Inside conf.php
also remember that you can turn debugging on "gmetad -d3 -c configfile" regards, richard -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Phil Dibowitz Sent: 02 May 2006 19:08 To: [email protected] Subject: [Ganglia-general] Multiple gmetads Hey folks, We have a situation where we have 4 "grids" made up of several decent sized "clusters". All works well with "scalability" set to "on". But we'd like to run a box that pulls directly from each cluster for the purposes of having all the RRD data on one box. However, setting up a box and turning "scalability" off, yields breaks in data... So I thought of running multiple gmetads on a box, each pulling from all the clusters in one grid directly. However, even if I specify different PID files, I can't make gmetad run more than once. I haven't started digging into the code to figure out why yet, but is there an actual conflict here, or should I be able to hack around this? -- Phil Dibowitz P: 310-360-2330 C: 213-923-5115 Unix Admin, Ticketmaster.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------ For more information about Barclays Capital, please visit our web site at http://www.barcap.com.
