Hello all. I am a system engineer working for Japan IBM and quite a newbie for Ganglia. I have installed RPM image (ganglia-gmond-3.0.7-1.aix5.1.ppc.rpm ) from Dr M. Perzl's site (http://www.perzl.org/ganglia) on IBM p5 p510 running with AIX 5.3 (5300-08-04)
However I found the report of bytes_in and bytes_out from Ganglia does not match with the reality. The followings are showing result from iperf, Ganglia and NMON for a case where I executed iperf client for 300 seconds on a different machine. iperf and NMON show the similar results which are around 120MB/s, however, the result from Ganglia shows much slower performance, which is around 14MB/s. Could anybody suggest me what I am missing or how I can solve the problem?
