If the goal is to get lustre data into ganglia and use existing mechanisms to look at the data, LMT is probably not the right path.
But if you wanted to set up LMT and just replace the back-end data collection mechanism, that is probably doable. I'm afraid my knowledge of ganglia falls short here but I would assume you could craft a shell script that feeds lustre /proc values to gmetric or write some sort of "native" ganglia module to do the job more efficiently.
