It looks like github is presenting nothing but problems. Anything that I have had to install from there has always been a big hassle. Perhaps a more simplified solution should be implemented. From: Daniel Pocock To: Carlo Marcelo Arenas Belon ; Vladimir Vuksa

Instead of spending time on creating a new web interface, it would have been more productive to create a stable version gmond that runs on Windows Server 2008 R2.   :) I prefer the original interface anyways. From: Vladimir Vuksan To: Martin Knoblauch Cc:

I believe that adding json would be a mistake. The reason is that when users install the main package there would be now a dependency on having json installed. It just adds to the complexity and helps to perpetuate RPM hell. I've had to deal with installing json in the past and it's been awful.

not quite right. When you supply a data collection module that crashes systems, then it needs to be fixed. From: Nick Satterly To: Daniel Pocock Cc: Im Root ; "ganglia-developers@lists.sourceforge.net" Sent: Tuesday, January 17, 2012 3:33 PM S

8 systems so can't test it. I would just note in release notes that Windows 2008 is not supported. That said I am not in favor of holding off the release. If someone wants to contribute Windows patches we can release that as 4.0.1 or later. Vladimir On Tue, 17 Jan 2012, Daniel Pocock wrote

We should also bundle the new monitor core with a version of gmond that runs on Windows 2008 r2 as well. The ganglia web front end loses some of it's monitoring functionality when it can't monitor basic operating systems. Besides, it only makes sense to keep ALL of the basic components up to dat

Hey this would be a great to benefit lots of users. Apparently the gmond program goes into an indefinite CPU loop on this operating system. (Nobody really cares if you make gmond run on zero/MQ pub sub anyways.) In fact this would be of more benefit than writing a ganglia book or putting the cod
