Thanks for replying.the port should be fine. what i want to confirm is that in -Dflume.monitoring.hosts= xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:port should the host be the address of gmetad or the gmond? currently, i have 3 machines, like m1,m2,m3i installed gmetad on m2, and gmond on all of the 3 machines. from the ganglia ui, i can see the system metrics of the 3 machines(nodes), however what i want is the flume metrics running on m1. this is the port related config in gmetad.conf

Do i need to install the gmond in the machine that running flume agent? or is there any configuration i need to do? Cheers
