Hi, I am a newbie to ganglia setup. I am pretty interested in ganglia for its power and hierarchy like setup: Grid -> Cluster(s) -> node(s).
I've read the wiki at http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/wikis/display/WikiPtype/ganglia which is pretty helpful. But the problem of the setup is that proxies nodes with gmond/gmetad are in need. The central gmetad server talks with the proxies with 'datasource *' statement setup. But I like a setup without proxies -- all nodes from a handful of clusters(each node is setup with only one <cluster> section for sure) send UDP packets directly to the only gmond/gmetad server. The situation for me is: my environment is in completely virtual computing cloud, there are >20 clusters/hostgroups but all nodes are dynamic/virtual and so proxy (head)nodes are impossible to fix -- they are all dynamic and can die hard any minute. Any one can shed a light on this? Thanks a lot. --David ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
