Ganglia and SuSE
Ganglia (Distributed Monitoring and Execution System, for clusters) seems to have an rpm for RedHat, but not specifically for SuSE. In particular, the rpm (and the source, as well) rely on a function /etc/rc.d/init.d/functions, which exists in RH but not in SuSE (at least, I'm not sure where it would get installed). I installed the default distribution of SuSE 8.2, with full network, and Dev. Apps, so it obviously doesn't exist in a reasonably "standard" install. Does anyone know which package /etc/rc.d/init.d/functions exists in? Or, more 'broadly', if Ganglia has a SuSE specific rpm / distribution? Thanks! Robert Amodeo UCLA /.r.\

I'll see if I can come up with SuSE packages. But here are the init scripts for gmond and gmetad, now conforming to LSB. Note that this is all untested, just done for your convenience. Note that you'll have to delete possibly existing runlevel links. Procedure: - copy the attached scripts to /etc/init.d - call 'insserv gmond' - call 'insserv gmetad' - 'ln -sf /etc/init.d/gmond /usr/sbin/rcgmond' - 'ln -sf /etc/init.d/gmetad /usr/sbin/rcgmetad' After that call 'rcgmetad start' and 'rcgmond start' to start the scripts without rebooting or changing runlevels.

Philipp, there will be packages on 9.0 :) Peter

Damn it! I should have looked first, would have saved me some time. Thanks for pointing it out. Philipp
