Hi all: There's a bug filed regarding python metric module naming conflict with official python modules:
http://bugzilla.ganglia.info/cgi-bin/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=255 For instance, if you created a module called "test" and there is already an existing python module by that name, then that module will be loaded first (since it's earlier in the search path) and metric_init will fail. I think the fix should be to put the metric modules in their own name space -- one solution would be to create a subdirectory called "ganglia" under $libdir/python_modules, create an empty file $libdir/python_modules/ganglia/__init__.py such that it is treated as a python package and to store all user-defined python metric scripts there. In that case, when importing the module, you would do "import ganglia.blah" instead. We would need to modify mod_python.c to accommodate this change though -- thoughts?
