Arun, as an example, run "nc localhost 8651" on your ganglia server. That is the grid level raw data that could be used for snapshot processing. If you netcatted directly to a cluster member (or headnode if you unicast), then that provides current values for the cluster. So even though a C API does not exist as such, you could pretty easily make a wrapper that connects to the right host/port and slurps the data in. - richard

I can see the graphs listing the load on cpu of diffrent nodes, average load, etc.. I need to get the cpu load at an instant using an api, preferably in C. Is there an interface available?
