I don't see how. I'm looking at a copy of the book right now, and Figure 2-3 has three gmonds: two (deaf) gmonds that send to a third gmond (mute) that aggregates them. There's nothing about retransmitting or relaying metrics at all. Gmond doesn't retransmit metrics, except when polled via TCP (which is usually from gmetad). > Hi Peter, > > It’s very sad.
