Hi Kevin: In your opinion, what would be a "fix" for this issue?
Technically this is not a bug. We thought of setting a default value but since this is highly dependent on the users' setup we decided to leave it up to the users to change it. I suppose we could add some checks during startup such that if the user has configured gmond to run in unicast mode, the value for send_metadata_interval needs to be non-zero.
