there is a lot of interesting information in : http://ganglia.wiki.sourceforge.net/ganglia_documents the IBM wiki link is a very good step by step description of how to get ganglia working (even if it is more oriented to IBM systems) but the easier way to get you going if you have a typical cluster configuration as described by : * all your nodes are in the same VLAN and have 1 active network interface * you have gmond installed in all nodes * you have gmetad installed in at least 1 node with a frontend with PHP in that case the all you have to do is : * stop iptables, selinux or anything else that might get in the way * start gmond in all nodes with the default configuration, or regenerate one on each node using `gmond -t` * start gmetad with the default configuration * start apache and go to the "/ganglia" directory to see your cluster > knowledge of multicasting is that of a total newbie.

Exiting. 192.168.129.1 is not a multicast IP, the one provided in the configuration by default should work better, if there is no other gmond already running (or other process already using port 8649) Carlo ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
