Stefan,
This is all from my memory:
The xml_port returns all the xml data that gmetad has slurped from
all it's data_sources. The interactive_port is more like a webserver, it
lets you request data for specific cluster. If you don't give your
request correctly to the interactive_port, it will act like the xml_port.
I think that the web frontend uses the interactive port, so everytime
you look at a web page, the php interactively queries the gmetad it is
tied to, getting only the information it needs for the page it is
generating.

Hi,
I have a question about the gmetad configuration. What is the difference
between xml_port and interactive_port?
