I am trying to configure ganglia to monitor a cluster.  My initial 
thoughts were to have a gmond running on each of the compute nodes, 
and to have a gmond running on the head node which would aggregate the 
data from the compute nodes and add it's own monitoring data.
The problem I am having is that it kind of appears that I have to choose 
to either aggregate the data at the head node, or monitor the head node, 
but I can't seem to get both working at the same time.
I am using the unicast option.

On the compute nodes:
cluster {
  name = "my cluster"
}

host {
  location = "unspecified"
}

udp_send_channel {
  host = head
  port = 8649
}
tcp_accept_channel {
  port = 8649
}


On the head node:
cluster {   
  name = "my cluster" 
}

host {
  location = "unspecified"
}

udp_recv_channel {
  port = 8649
}
tcp_accept_channel {
  port = 8649
}

Then I have a gmetad running on a seperate server with the following in 
it's gmetad.conf:
data_source "my cluster" head

Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
