Thank you Richard for the clarification about gmetad. I was hoping to run everything under Windows (Apache, rrdtools, gmetad and gmond).
Can you provide some documentation about the compilation of rrdtools (this I believe can be compiled with VS) and gmond under cygwin ? Thanks. _____ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, May 17, 2006 2:45 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [email protected] Subject: RE: [Ganglia-general] Compiling Ganglia on Windows Joshua, to the best of my knowledge, gmetad has never been compiled for windows. So you will not be able to run the server code under windows. Gmond and gmetric have been compiled by myself and others in a cygwin environment. There is no windows build documentation. The windows gmond does not implement (properly or at all) quite a few metrics, most notably the load measures. This is not the fault of gmond, but rather the incomplete linux /proc emulation by cygwin. In my case, as the bulk of the monitored systems are windows based HPC farms, I hacked the php code to be (generally) keyed from the cpu metrics rather than the (non working) load metrics. I will mail you a zip file with the binaries. Let me know if they do not arrive. regards, richard -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of joshua mora Sent: 16 May 2006 18:23 To: [email protected] Subject: [Ganglia-general] Compiling Ganglia on Windows Hello Is there a document with explanations (step by step process) about how to build Ganglia (gmetad and gmond) and rddtools for Windows. I don't know if some parts have to be compiled within cygwin or can everything be compiled through solution files with VS. Although I am interested in compiling Ganglia, I am looking also for the binaries to download since I haven't found them.
