To get the extra debugging info you would have to shell into the computer and restart ganglia from the shell with "/etc/init.d/gmon restart". To restart the master process on the head node, from a terminal with root privilages type "/etc/init.d/gmetad restart".
I believe you will get debug information in the terminal which started the process then.
