Hi,

We have been experiencing a weird issue with gmetad.

I am running gmetad v3.4.0

Once in a while now a XML error seems to occur. Like this:

/usr/sbin/gmetad[12241]: Process XML (LISA Cluster): XML_ParseBuffer() error at 
line 525626:

Besides what is causing that and why, this causing the Ganglia web front end to 
hang and become non responsive.

After checking the gmetad it seems port 8652 is no longer responding to 
queries. This does nothing:

# telnet localhost 8652
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.
/LISA Cluster

<after about 1 minute>
Connection closed by foreign host.


However port 8651 still works:

# telnet localhost 8651 | wc -l
Connection closed by foreign host.
921410

And when I switch the web frontend from port 8652 back to port 8651 
($conf['ganglia_port'] = 8651;), the web page responds and works again.

After restarting gmetad port 8652 also becomes responsive again. It almost 
seems gmetad has a thread lost it's way or something.

Any idea what may be causing this (besides the XML error)? It seems weird to me 
if 1 port works and the other does not anymore. It might be a bug.

I have a dump of the XML (from port 8651 before restarting) available for who 
might want it, but it is 42 MB.


Kind regards,
- Ramon.
