For the web server to read the rrd databases, they at least have to be accessible. The gmetad and httpd servers can be separate as long as they both have file-system access to the /var/lib/rrd files. I would just nfs mount the gmetad:/var/lib/ganglia/rrd to httpd:/var/lib/ganglia/rrds/ unless you are going to be serving multiple grids... Another simple option is to edit the /var/www/html/ganlia/conf.php file to say exactly where the rrd files are (wherever you mount them).
I haven't actually tried this, of course, so I may be very wrong. -adam On Thu, 2007-03-29 at 15:30 +0200, saundrya mishra wrote: > Hi There, > > I am new to Ganglia.
