[Ganglia-developers] Regarding string metrics
Hi, I am using Ganglia for monitoring lighttpd server statistics in a cloud environment. In my case I would have string metrics such as the pages which are frequently accessed etc. I understand that if there are many clusters, then Ganglia aggregates the information at the grid level. This is possible for the numerical metrics. However, I would like to know how this would work for the string metrics. -Archana -- Colocation vs. Managed Hosting A question and answer guide to determining the best fit for your organization - today and in the future. http://p.sf.net/sfu/internap-sfd2d___ Ganglia-developers mailing list Ganglia-developers@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/ganglia-developers
Re: [Ganglia-developers] Regarding string metrics
Ganglia doesn't have a model for aggregating string-valued metrics. On the other hand, you can get a long way by having your metrics-gathering modules post a count *per string* (e.g., www.yahoo.com:hits, 15); you'll have a ton, though, so you may want to use some sort of naming prefix to help organize them. If you have ideas about how you'd like to see them aggregated, I for one would love to hear them; it's a fun problem to try to solve. -- ReC On Fri, Mar 11, 2011 at 9:13 AM, Archana N dreamgirl...@gmail.com wrote: Hi, I am using Ganglia for monitoring lighttpd server statistics in a cloud environment.

Re: [Ganglia-developers] Google Summer of Code 2011
Hi all: I have submitted our application for GSoC and have also created a template for student application here: https://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/ganglia/wiki/gsoc_application_template Alex Dean and Jesse Becker have also expressed interest in becoming mentors. Let's hope we get accepted to be a mentoring organization this year :-) Cheers, Bernard On Mon, Feb 28, 2011 at 11:53 AM, Bernard Li bern...@vanhpc.org wrote: Hi all: So far only Vladimir have expressed interest in becoming a mentor -- we would need more mentors and also a backup administrator to participate. Anybody else interested please let me know ASAP.

So, who would like to be a mentor?

Re: [Ganglia-developers] Patch for Edit Optional Graphs on a Cluster level
Hi Jeffrey: On Wed, Mar 9, 2011 at 4:20 AM, Jeffrey Lensen jeff...@hyves.nl wrote: I've made a patch for edit_optional_graphs.php which allows for adding and viewing optional graphs on a cluster level. We have quite a large number of graphs we'd also like to see in aggregated form in the cluster view and this allows us to select and view only those we want/need to see for a specific cluster. Json files are stored in a similar fashion as the host ones. Thanks for the patch, BTW, Vladimir has already committed it: https://github.com/vvuksan/ganglia-misc/commit/46e782e2ef5ce84341d4fef56d7d80d03233797e Cheers, Bernard -- Colocation vs. Managed Hosting A question and answer guide to determining the best fit for your organization - today and in the future. http://p.sf.net/sfu/internap-sfd2d ___ Ganglia-developers mailing list Ganglia-developers@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/ganglia-developers
