Puppet: Ganglia

Usage

Using unicast (not the Ganglia default way)

on the nodes

include ganglia::gmon

# one or more cluster heads:
ganglia::gmon::unicast_send { 'master':
    host    => 'master-for-this-cluster',
}

# define the name of the cluster (& owner)
ganglia::gmon::cluster { 'cluster':
    owner   => 'DataCrunchers',
}

On the head node

The node instructions apply to the head node as well.

# accept tcp connections (for communication between gmon & gmetad).
ganglia::gmon::tcp_accept { 'localhost' :
    bind    => 'localhost',
}

ganglia::gmon::unicast_receive { 'cluster': }

include ganglia::gmeta

ganglia::gmeta::retriever { 'cluster':
    hosts   => { 'master-for-this-cluster' => 8649 }
}
