Okay, so it looks like the issue does not have anything to do with network distance/latency. Instead of running gmetad on multiple ports of one server, have you tried running gmetad on the cluster headnodes and then have them aggregate the data to the current gmetad server? You can do this by having a data_source entry like the following: # data_source "my grid" 50 grid.org:8651 Where grid.org:8651 refers to gmetad running on the headnode of one of your cluster. (This is what I refer to as federation) Cheers, Bernard ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
