Huh, this bug is from March 2007, and someone added a patch back then to work around it. Should this have made it into 3.1, or 3.1.1? It doesn't look like it. Also, | ------- Additional Comment #1 From Timothy Witham 2007-03-29 09:01 | Created an attachment (id=56) | gmetad patch to fix bugzilla #92 | | A quick hack is to pick a random host from the list, which is what | this patch does.

Maybe we should just talk to | a random host every time. Better to fix Bug#38 though... Bug#38 puts a gmond effectively in deaf mode without logging errors if there's a network reconfig. That would have the effect of gmetad getting incomplete, old data from that gmond, but that seems to be a different problem. Told solve it in gmetad, we'd want gmetad to have some way of judging whether the data it's getting from a gmond is fresh and current, which is not the same as judging whether it actually *got* the data from the gmond. IOW, I don't think a fix to this bug should wait on being able to also handle deaf gmond's more intelligently. -- Cos ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Ganglia-general mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/ganglia-general
