gmetad does have such a table in its configuration in the form of datasources which should include at least the cluster/grid name and at least 1 gmond which contains the information about that. fixing gmetad so that it overrides the cluster name using the name of the data source when it is not defined in the collector (as I explained before) would allow for something like what you were proposing here (except that you will still need to have a way to find all nodes for that cluster and instruct them to update the collector for that cluster). that last part works now by default if all servers are using the default configuration and the cluster is on its own VLAN, because they all will automatically collect and report the cluster configuration.
