Hmm,
It looks as though adding multicast support is more an issue with the Metrics
code rather than with kafka-ganglia. The only way I could see to tell
GangliaReporter to use multicast when sending messages was to pass it a
GangliaMessageBuilder that constructed GangliaMessages using a proper
Hi Andrew, how do you plan to use metrics 3.0.1? The current Kafka 0.8
version uses 2.2 AFAIK so this is going to require a new Kafka version.
I don't really use multicast TTL muself but you are right that this should
be configurable and I'll definitely accept pull request going in that
direction.
Hi Maxime,
I'm using this at the Wikimedia Foundation to send Kafka Broker metrics to
Ganglia. However, we use Ganglia in multicast mode. This mostly seems to work
with your code, but the ttl on the multicast packets gets set at 1. We have
sometimes have multiple levels of ganglia aggregator
FYI..
We wrote a library that is essentially the exact same thing as metrics. The
only reason we didn't use metrics was because it didn't exist yet. There is
a graphite reporter which could be purposed for metrics.

Jun,
Note that the puppet module README I liked to isn't a full jmxtrans example
JSON query. It is a jmxtrans puppet module usage example. So, using that in
puppet will generate a .json file containing the query.
We'll be moving to 0.8 in the next coming months, and I'll try to get some real
I added a JMX reporter wiki page:
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/JMX+Reporters , which is
linked from our main wiki page.
Could you add a short description (including the supported version) and a
link there?
Thanks,

Cool!
At WMF, we use jmxtrans to do this:

And, if you use puppet, here's a nice little module to help generate jmxtrans
json files, and an example of metrics we were sending to Ganglia from Kafka
0.7.2.
