Gmond, So far so good on SUSE Linux 10.  Built, installed, gathering metrics 
without a problem :)  Still need to install Gmetad on my server.

[Ganglia-developers] Ganglia 3.1.7 ready for testing

2010-02-17 Thread Daniel Pocock
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1


I've tagged 3.1.7 and built a tarball:

http://ganglia.info/testing/ganglia-3.1.7.tar.gz

The md5sum for 3.1.7 is: 6aa5e2109c2cc8007a6def0799cf1b4c

Since 3.1.6, only two things have changed and may need to be tested
again by those who tested 3.1.6:
 - the build system (support for commas in CFLAGS)
 - the multicpu module - percentages reported differently

This is not confirmation that the release is in GA status - a further
notification will be sent when the testing period has elapsed without
any serious defect.  Users are invited to test the tarball and submit
feedback.

Please do not commit on branches/monitor-core-3.1 until after 3.1.7
goes GA, in case further tweaks are needed to facilitate a successful
release.

Below are the release notes from the STATUS file.  Other documentation
has also changed since 3.1.2 and should be reviewed:

GANGLIA 3.1 STATUS:   -*-text-*-

Contributors looking for a mission:

  * Just do an egrep on "TODO", "XXX" or "FIXME" in the source.

CURRENT RELEASE NOTES:
  (Please update this area with a brief description of bug fixes and
   enhancements that have been backported for the current release)

  Note: 3.1.3, 3.1.4, 3.1.5 and 3.1.6 never became GA, therefore,
  the release notes for all of them are combined below.

  3.1.7:

  * Fix build support for RHEL5/issue with commas in CFLAGS
  * multicpu module: show CPU utilization as a value between 0-100% for
each core

  3.1.6:

  * Merge commit 1966 from trunk to fix "contrib/removespikes.pl"
  * Bootstrapping with Debian 5.0 (lenny) versions of autotools for
this and future releases.

http://www.mail-archive.com/ganglia-gene...@lists.sourceforge.net/msg04688.html
  * Require user to explicitly specify sysconfdir when building from
source,
due to the fact that the old behavior was not consistent with the
documented behavior.
  * Configuration files and scripts are now created during the install
phase
rather than during configure.   This allows values such as
@sysconfdir@
to be used in the template configuration files.
  * Abolish the use of release names - only release numbers will be used
to distinguish versions in future
  * libmetrics: workaround system header conflict in DFBSD >= 2.4 (BUG245)
  * Use PCRE regex matching to configure metrics using the name_match
directive
  * rrdcached support
  * gmetad now uses apr and the sleep intervals between polls are
randomized
in a way that supports shorter polling intervals
  * FreeBSD support: fixes for crashes and disk statistics (BUG153)
  * Further tweaks to Solaris build support (remove C99 hack)
  * Eliminate conflict with ncpus symbol name on older Solaris
  * AIX support: determine if the host is a virtual server (BUG226)
  * AIX support: setting linker flags (BUG227), add -lm
  * AIX support: tweaks for AIX >= v6.1
  * AIX support: revised init scripts for gmond and gmetad
  * Check for Python.h explicitly
  * Include the necessary Python files in the distribution tarball,
regardless
of how BUILD_PYTHON is set (r2215).
  * Remove references to GNU toolchain in documentation
  * Fortify write_data_to_rrd against overflows
  * Web interface: minor formatting changes
  * mcast_if implementation tweaked so that the send channel will be bound
to the IP of the outgoing interface
  * Documentation updates relating to the options for multihomed hosts,
particularly bind, bind_hostname and mcast_if

  3.1.5:

  * No change to source code, just modified configure.in and STATUS file
and will be bootstrapping on Fedora 9 with newer autotools version
than
CentOS 4

  3.1.4:

  * gmond: Limit the use of APR_POLLSET_THREADSAFE to Linux >= 2.6
  * gmond: improve/revert setuid behavior in configure script

  3.1.3:

  * gmond: Fix the allow_extra_data configuration directive (BUG199)
  * gmond: Ensure that a complete XML dump is delivered before closing
   the send socket
