Description

Datasources should be added to gmetad.conf only for the installed components

On our Ambari host, I see in /etc/ganglia/hdp/gmetad.conf the following data sources configured:
root@host1 hdp# grep data_source gmetad.conf | grep -v ^#
data_source "HDPSlaves" host1:8660
data_source "HDPNameNode" host1:8661
data_source "HDPJobTracker" host1:8662
data_source "HDPHBaseMaster" host1:8663
data_source "HDPResourceManager" host1:8664
data_source "HDPHistoryServer" host1:8666
But, doing a listing in that directory shows configs only for the first three:
root@host1 hdp# ls -l
total 20
rw-rr-. 1 root root 6159 Aug 6 07:09 gmetad.conf
