# This is an example of a Ganglia Meta Daemon configuration file # http://ganglia.sourceforge.net/ # # $Id: gmetad.conf 667 2006-07-20 08:49:41Z knobi1 $ # #------------------------------------------------------------------------------- # Setting the debug_level to 1 will keep daemon in the forground and # show only error messages. Setting this value higher than 1 will make # gmetad output debugging information and stay in the foreground. # default: 0 # debug_level 10 # #------------------------------------------------------------------------------- # What to monitor. The most important section of this file. # # The data_source tag specifies either a cluster or a grid to # monitor. If we detect the source is a cluster, we will maintain a complete # set of RRD databases for it, which can be used to create historical # graphs of the metrics. If the source is a grid (it comes from another gmetad), # we will only maintain summary RRDs for it. # # Format: # data_source "my cluster" [polling interval] address1:port addreses2:port ... # # The keyword 'data_source' must immediately be followed by a unique # string which identifies the source, then an optional polling interval in # seconds. The source will be polled at this interval on average. # If the polling interval is omitted, 15sec is asssumed. # # A list of machines which service the data source follows, in the # format ip:port, or name:port. If a port is not specified then 8649 # (the default gmond port) is assumed. # default: There is no default value # # data_source "my cluster" 10 localhost my.machine.edu:8649 1.2.3.5:8655 # data_source "my grid" 50 1.3.4.7:8655 grid.org:8651 grid-backup.org:8651 # data_source "another source" 1.3.4.7:8655 1.3.4.8 data_source "my cluster" localhost # # Round-Robin Archives # You can specify custom Round-Robin archives here (defaults are listed below) # # RRAs "RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:1:244" "RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:24:244" "RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:168:244" "RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:672:244" \ # "RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:5760:374" # # #------------------------------------------------------------------------------- # Scalability mode. If on, we summarize over downstream grids, and respect # authority tags. If off, we take on 2.5.0-era behavior: we do not wrap our output # in <GRID></GRID> tags, we ignore all <GRID> tags we see, and always assume # we are the "authority" on data source feeds. This approach does not scale to # large groups of clusters, but is provided for backwards compatibility. # default: on # scalable off # #------------------------------------------------------------------------------- # The name of this Grid. All the data sources above will be wrapped in a GRID # tag with this name. # default: Unspecified # gridname "MyGrid" # #------------------------------------------------------------------------------- # The authority URL for this grid. Used by other gmetads to locate graphs # for our data sources. Generally points to a ganglia/ # website on this machine. # default: "http://hostname/ganglia/", # where hostname is the name of this machine, as defined by gethostname(). # authority "http://mycluster.org/newprefix/" # #------------------------------------------------------------------------------- # List of machines this gmetad will share XML with. Localhost # is always trusted. # default: There is no default value # trusted_hosts 127.0.0.1 169.229.50.165 my.gmetad.org # #------------------------------------------------------------------------------- # If you want any host which connects to the gmetad XML to receive # data, then set this value to "on" # default: off # all_trusted on # #------------------------------------------------------------------------------- # If you don't want gmetad to setuid then set this to off # default: on # setuid off # #------------------------------------------------------------------------------- # User gmetad will setuid to (defaults to "nobody") # default: "nobody" # setuid_username "nobody" # #------------------------------------------------------------------------------- # The port gmetad will answer requests for XML # default: 8651 # xml_port 8651 # #------------------------------------------------------------------------------- # The port gmetad will answer queries for XML. This facility allows # simple subtree and summation views of the XML tree. # default: 8652 # interactive_port 8652 # #------------------------------------------------------------------------------- # The number of threads answering XML requests # default: 4 # server_threads 10 # #------------------------------------------------------------------------------- # Where gmetad stores its round-robin databases # default: "/var/lib/ganglia/rrds" # rrd_rootdir "/some/other/place" setuid off
