[HTCondor-users] Condor and Ganglia

[<Greg.Hitchen@xxxxxxxx>]

I’m looking at integrating Condor and Ganglia within our setup.

 

1. Our organization already has Ganglia setup and going and monitoring ~6 compute clusters.

This is completely outside of the Condor pool/s.

 

2. I know close to zero about ganglia technical details.

 

3. I’ve had a read through some HTCondor docs/presentations/manuals re Ganglia.

 

4. I’m unsure of what exactly is needed.

 

I was envisaging only running condor_gangliad on the Central Manager/s running the Collector daemon.

 

Is condor_gangliad essentially a condor specific gmond daemon? Does ganglia software need to be installed

on the Collector machine as well? So that we’re running a gmond and condor_gangliad?

 

Thanks for any help/info.

 

Cheers
