Re: [Ganglia-developers] PNG vs SVG

2007-12-14 Thread Matthew Chambers
When we discussed this before I predicted that SVG would reduce server side computation and network bandwidth usage while increasing client side computation, but it's great to see hard numbers Jesse, nice testing there. :) Unfortunately, Bernard is probably right that rrdtool's SVG output

2007-11-29 Thread Matthew Chambers
Hi all, My vote would be to never include external dependencies in the main distribution, but that is not to say that a static build option should be eliminated. Do any of the 3rd party dependencies lack a build system to create both static and dynamic libraries? That's the only problem I

I think the general (Redhat-based) scheme is to put the version after the library.so.# and symbolically link the library.so to that file, e.g.: libganglia.so.0-3.1.0 libganglia.so - libganglia.so.0-3.1.0 That current SONAME would mean you have to link with -lganglia-3.1.0 which is pretty

Hi Brad, Thanks for the easy tutorial for compiling gmond on Cygwin. It's too bad that Ganglia can't build with the free MSVC tools, but I understand that Ganglia is very GNU-oriented. I was able to follow the instructions for the 3.0.4 ganglia-core tarball with a relatively new version of

For my particular purpose, the amount of gmetrics and their names vary each time it is polled. This is because I submit the job information as metrics named after their jobid in the batch system, for example: METRIC NAME=MONARCH-JOB-56372-0 VAL=status=R start_timestamp=1184925586 name=STDIN

What is the recommended way of getting host specific graphs into Ganglia? I think your solution is the only way to allow host specific reports without major changes to the frontend. But I also think the frontend needs a way to allow the user to include or exclude customized reports like
