Remember rrdcached If gmetad is configured to use rrdcached, it is essential for rrdcached to be running before gmetad is started. Testing Your Installation gmond and gmetad both listen on TCP sockets for inbound connections. To test whether gmond is operational on a given host, telnet to gmond’s TCP port: user@host:$ telnet localhost 8649 In reply, gmond should output an XML dump of metric data.
If a new machine running gmond is added to a cluster, it needs to announce itself and inform all other nodes of the metrics that it currently supports. In multicast mode, this isn’t a problem, because any node can request the metadata of all other nodes in the cluster. However, in unicast mode, a resend interval must be established. The interval value is the minimum number of seconds between resends. module_dir (path; optional) Indicates the directory where the metric collection modules are found.
