That is a good solution under two conditions: a) you are only concerned with redundancy and not looking for scalability - when I say scalability, I refer to the idea of maybe 3 or more gmetads running in parallel collecting data from huge numbers of agents b) you can afford to have duplicate storage - if your storage requirements are huge (retaining a lot of historic data or lot's of data at short polling intervals), you may not want to duplicate everything ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Return on Information: Google Enterprise Search pays you back Get the facts. http://p.sf.net/sfu/google-dev2dev _______________________________________________ Ganglia-developers mailing list Ganglia-developers@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/ganglia-developers
