After some more testing and fiddling, it seems that on Windows, gmond will never add itself to the cluster. It will add other Windows gmonds to the cluster, which results in each machine having information about every other machine but itself. I suppose this could be worked around by running two gmonds on at least one of the boxes, with special configs of course. Oh joy. :)
I definitely second the Windows binary distribution, but it'll need the Cygwin runtimes as well. I can confirm that all I needed to do was copy cygwin1.dll to the current directory to get gmond.exe and gstat.exe to run. I couldn't get multicast working, though. -Matt > -----Original Message----- > From: Brad Nicholes [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Thursday, August 23, 2007 1:31 PM > To: ganglia-developers@lists.sourceforge.net; Matthew Chambers > Cc: Rajrajat Naik > Subject: Re: [Ganglia-developers] [PROPOSAL] Building Gmond on > WindowsDoc... > > Since most Windows users aren't used to building their own binaries, I > think a windows binary disto would be a good idea.
