I'm not sure why the condor_gangliad would be running if you did not add it to your daemon list.   But the error is because you need to put GANGLIAD in your daemon list not GANGLIA_D. 

Instructions for how to handle the case where the metad is on a different machine than the condor_collector is here

Subject: [HTCondor-users] HTCondor and condor_ganglia issues

 

Hi,

I am trying to configure HTcondor's ganglia monioring. In that context, I see something I do not understand.

Firstly, I see the process condor_gangliad even though it is not in the DAEMON_LIST. config_val_dump shows DAEMON_LIST = MASTER COLLECTOR NEGOTIATOR SCHEDD). Is this expected?

Secondly, When I specifically add GANGLIA_D to DAEMON_LIST in condor config file, the error given below shows up in MasterLog. Where do I add the executable path? We  have CONDOR_VERSION = 8.9.13

GANGLIA_D is in the DAEMON_LIST parameter, but there is no executable path for it defined in the config files!
ERROR "Must have the path to GANGLIA_D defined." at line 1606 in file /var/lib/condor/execute/slot1/dir_19111/userdir/.tmp9djsO9/BUILD/condor-8.9.13/src/condor_master.V6/masterDaemon.cpp

Thirdly, after resolving above issues, what is the scheme to hookup HTCondor's monitoring to existing Ganglia? We will have condor_gangliad on same machine as Collector, and Ganglia's metad running on a different host.

Thanks

Nagaraj
