Currently the Ganglia UI is host oriented, expecting a core set of metrics to be present for each server. The current Host sFlow implementation includes virtual machine statistics (equivalent to libvirt performance metrics), but they are disabled by default since there are issues with the UI since virtual machines report a limited set of metrics: http://blog.sflow.com/2011/07/ganglia-and-cloud-performance.html There are additional enhancements to the Ganglia UI and data model that would be helpful: http://www.mail-archive.com/ganglia-general@lists.sourceforge.net/msg06319.html Enabling sFlow metrics from network devices would have similar problems since the metrics relate to network links rather than servers. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ All of the data generated in your IT infrastructure is seriously valuable. Why? It contains a definitive record of application performance, security threats, fraudulent activity, and more. Splunk takes this data and makes sense of it. IT sense. And common sense. http://p.sf.net/sfu/splunk-d2d-c2 _______________________________________________ Ganglia-general mailing list Ganglia-general@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/ganglia-general
