Python module for ganglia 3.1.
This module reads GPFS client statistics using mmpmon and creates a gpfs_* metric for each.
Uses mmpmon which requires root privileges. Since gmond usually runs as user nobody the module will call it with sudo. This requires that the gmond user be allowed to run mmpmon with sudo and without a password. You will need to add to your sudo config file a line similar to the below:
nobody ALL = NOPASSWD : /usr/lpp/mmfs/bin/mmpmon Defaults:nobody !requiretty
