Hi Konrad,
no idea yet what the problem with your debug_level option is. which
version of ganglia do you use ? which kind of os ?
try to specify your port (8649) in the gmetad.conf.
data_source "WAI New York Cluster" localhost
should change to
data_source "WAI New York Cluster" localhost:8649 or
data_source "WAI New York Cluster" 172.22.1.100:8649
gmond and gmetad run independently of each other.
greets ron
