Dear Ganglia Community:

The Ganglia development team is proud to release version 3.0.5 (Louis)
of the popular Ganglia monitoring software.  Ganglia is a scalable
distributed monitoring system for high-performance computing systems
such as clusters and Grids.

Please refer to the SourceForge page for all downloads:

http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=43021&package_id=35280&release_id=542943

The following is a summary of changes in this release.  For detailed
changelog please refer to the ChangeLog file in the release
distribution tarball:

- [gmetad] Fixed a bug where messages are being discarded in MacOSX
and thus causing data from clients not being consistently and
accurately saved to the rrd files (Mike Walker)
- [win32] Include documentation (README.WIN) for building under Windows
- [webfrontend] Enlarge graphs by clicking on them (Ulf)
- [webfrontend] Include RRDTool version in frontend footer (Matthew Chambers)
- [webfrontend] Only set the grid stack cookie if it hasn't been set
before (Matt Ryan)
- [webfrontend] New feature to allow sorting by hosts up and hosts
down in meta context (Bernard Li, Eli Stair, Timothy D Witham)
- [gstat] New option "-n" to show numeric addresses instead of
hostname (Bernard Li)
- Builds under Yellow Dog Linux on Sony PlayStation 3 ppc64 (Bernard Li)
- Do not automatically start services (gmond, gmetad) after RPM
installation (Bernard Li)
- Add y-labels for some metrics. Needed to fix width of RRD images.
(Martin Knoblauch)
- Build system (Autotools) enhancements (Carlo Marcelo Arenas Belon)
- Misc bug fixes

Work is underway for the next (3.1.0) release of Ganglia which will
allow metrics to be dynamically
loaded via DSO.  These metrics can be written either in C or in Python
making it extremely easy to
create plugins for monitoring metrics not already present by default.
Apr, expat and libconfuse will
be built dynamically in the new release which will make packaging for
distributions easier.

Enjoy!

Bernard

(On behalf of the Ganglia development team)
