You can run as many gmond processes on a machine as you want, use the -c optoin to specify a config file, and within each config file specify a different port.
Allows you to generate as much load as your existing machines can muster. Harper Mann wrote:
Hi, We're supporting a couple of sites with several hundred servers monitored with Ganglia. So far, ganglia is working well and easily keeping up with the load. We want to run some scaling tests and thought it would be good to simulate a large gmond with a couple thousand servers reporting before we have to support that many. Is there a way to simulate multiple servers reporting to a gmond? If not, what do you think might be the best approach for this? We could take a crack at creating it. Thanks for any help.
