Bernard and Alex,
Thanks for the advice.  I saw somewhere that you can't have the cluster 
name in nagios be the same as the head node. 
Is that the case?  I thought I had tried the option you recommended 
before, but with those being the same and it acted 
confused. 
Anyway, the option you gave me was perfect to get it working as I wanted. 
Thanks,
Jeff

Re: [Ganglia-general] Including a Head Node in Ganglia Monitoring






Hi Jeff:

Aren't you just missing a "udp_send_channel" to itself on head?

Cheers,

Bernard
