[Ganglia-developers] Ganglia Forums
Have you guys been monitoring the forums? Looks like a bunch of questions have been asked but they have not been getting a lot of love: http://forums.ganglia.info I created the forums over a year ago and when I went to check on it just now I expected it to be empty... but was pleasantly surprised. Since SF Hosted Apps are going away (yes phpBB is a hosted app), perhaps we should migrate it somewhere else... thoughts?

Re: [Ganglia-developers] Ganglia libvirt and other virtualization technologies
I've already seen sFlow and ganglia about month ago, and I had some problems during configuration, but maybe I should try it again. So maybe I have different question now. Is there any way to query gmetad about historical data? I'd like to retrieve some data in my external piece of software (python module) to analyze those data and do some actions if proper conditions are fulfilled. I don't want store data twice (in my module for example in my Mysql database and in RRD files created by gmetad), so my true question is: can i query gmetad to get those data, or should i just read gmetad's RRD file and do not connect with gmetad itself or maybe should i get data through tcp from gmetad and store it in my own way and own database? I don't know much about RRD and I'd like to avoid reading RRD files myself, but also I don't want to store them twice. It would be perfect if I could get them through ganglia (from gmetad after proper request), because mostly, I'm interested in historical data. Btw. what differences are between gmetad and gmetad-python? Beside language of course. Both implementations have the same features?

Re: [Ganglia-developers] Ganglia libvirt and other virtualization technologies
I can't help you with your questions about gmetad, but I would be very interested in hearing where you ran into trouble during the sFlow/Ganglia configuration. I am currently working on documentation and would like to make sure that I fill any gaps.

Re: [Ganglia-developers] Ganglia libvirt and other virtualization technologies
TCP is not supported. Ganglia's binary protocol and sFlow both use UDP. Loosing a packet is no big deal - a new measurement will be sent next polling interval and the benefits of a stateless protocol are considerable.

My expertise is limited to sFlow. Btw. sFlow can use TCP as well as UDP? I'm worried about UDP unreliability. -- Simon -- Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.

[Ganglia-developers] How to submit bug fixes/ new features for ganglia-web?
Hi, I have been playing around with the ganglia - nagios integration scripts, and uncovered a small issue in some of the php files, where the wrong variable is used for the output where a host is not found ($metric_name instead of $host). I have corrected this locally, but how do I best get this fixed upstream (ie, in github)? Also, I have used check_multiple_metrics.php as the basis to write a custom version, as we needed to add the warning functionality, and desired not to alert about metrics that returned no data. If this is something others would find useful, how do I submit it? Side note: A big thanks to everyone who has worked on this project, it is very valuable and I hope to be able to give something back. Cheers, Michael. -- Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
