Hi,

I'm new to Ganglia and I have a question about using gmetric with
unicast. (Sorry if this question has been addressed before. I can't read
through the archives because sourceforge's archive is not working right
now).

I'm trying to do this from bes01.plaxo.com:
gmetric --conf=/etc/gmond.conf.bes --name disk_tps --value `sar -b |
tail -2 | head -1 | awk '{ print $3 }'` --type float --units
Transactions --tmax=3600

There are 10 hosts, and they all forward their stats to bes01.plaxo.com
and bes02.plaxo.com.

I'm assuming that I can just run gmetric from bes01 or bes02 and it'll
forward the command to all other hosts in the cluster? Or because I'm
using unicast something is different?

And /etc/gmond.conf.bes is:
udp_send_channel { 
  host = bes01.plaxo.com
  port = 8649 
} 
udp_send_channel { 
  host = bes02.plaxo.com
  port = 8649 
} 
udp_send_channel { 
  host = bes03.plaxo.com
  port = 8649 
} 
udp_send_channel { 
  host = bes04.plaxo.com
  port = 8649 
} 
udp_send_channel { 
  host = bes05.plaxo.com
  port = 8649 
} 
udp_send_channel { 
  host = bes06.plaxo.com
  port = 8649 
} 
udp_send_channel { 
  host = bes07.plaxo.com
  port = 8649 
} 
udp_send_channel { 
  host = bes08.plaxo.com
  port = 8649 
} 
udp_send_channel { 
  host = bes09.plaxo.com
  port = 8649 
} 
udp_send_channel { 
  host = bes10.plaxo.com
  port = 8649 
}

And bes[01-10].plaxo.com's gmond.conf says:
  ... Snip ...
udp_send_channel { 
  mcast_join = bes01.plaxo.com
  port = 8649 
} 
udp_send_channel { 
  mcast_join = bes02.plaxo.com
  port = 8649 
} 

udp_recv_channel {
  port = 8649
  family = inet4
}
   ... Snip ...



Thanks for your help!
