select 1 node in your cluster (better if not memory bound) or even better the
server which you are going to use as the gmetad/frontend server (let assume it
is 10.10.0.20) and then set the following in /etc/gmond.conf in all nodes :
udp_send_channel {
port = 8649
host = 10.10.0.20
}
remove any other udp_send_channel, or udp_recv_channel that reference
multicast (because you are not using it) and be sure that you have in the
collector the configuration to accept unicast messages (udp) and gmetad :
udcp_recv_channel {
port = 8649
}
tcp_accept_channel {
port = 8649
}
if you did nothing else and everything is running by default you should be
able to see your cluster through the web interface.

PS. since you didn't answer my question will assume that multicast works in
solaris with ganglia and your environmental restriction is then
self-inflicted. If wrong please file a bug.
