ganglia-monitor-core
ganglia-monitor-core-devel
ganglia-monitor-core-gmetad
ganglia-monitor-core-gmond
ganglia-webfrontend
#
zypper install ganglia-monitor-core-gmond
...
The following NEW packages are going to be installed:
ganglia-monitor-core-gmond thttpd

I suppose then I would have to customise some scripts (e.g. in
/etc/init.d?) on each node to run gmond there... I am new to ganglia
(actually fairly new to cluster computing also) so I am not very
familiar with the way ganglia should work in such a setup.
