Hello, I'm new on the list but I have a difficult problem I suppose. I maintain 
a cluster which used to work nicely. After a reboot, necessary due to the 
instalation of an UPS, I cannot start gmond on the server even if on the nodes 
is working well. I have Scientific Linux SL release 5.3 (Boron) installed on 
all machines. I have the following kernel on all the nodes: [ root@cn-smpi

details:  root@cn-smpi  sbin]# /sbin/service gmond start Starting GANGLIA

on the server: [ root@cn-smpi  sbin]# yum update python [ root@cn-smpi  sbin]# 
rpm -qa python python-2.4.3-43.el5.x86_64 I tried to start again gmond and: [
