The issue that I had most similar to yours<br>came about because I had installed the collector RPM and enabled collectors on<br>two server nodes, but the GUI was only getting data from one of them. Each client<br>randomly selected a collector to deliver data to. <br>So how are multiple collectors supposed to work? Active/Passive? Failover pairs?<br>Shared storage? Better not be on GPFS… Maybe there is a place in the gui config<br>to tell it to keep track of multiple collectors, but I gave up looking and turned of the<br>second collector service and removed it from the candidates.<br><br>Other issue I mentioned before is that it is totally confused about how many nodes are<br>in the cluster (thinks 21, with 3 unhealthy) when there are only 12 nodes in all, all healthy.<br>The nodes dashboard never finishes loading, and no means of digging deeper (text based<br>info) to find out why it is wedged.<br><br> — ddj<br>
