-## `ganglia` build tag
-If you want support for the [Ganglia Monitoring System](http://ganglia.info/), you have to add `-tags ganglia` to the build command line. This enables two metric sinks. One is using the command line application `gmetric` (see [`ganglia`](./sinks/gangliaSink.md) sink), the other one interacts directly with `libganglia` the main Ganglia library that is commonly installed on each compute node (see [`libganglia`](./sinks/libgangliaSink.md) sink). The later one requires configuration before building, so use `make` instead of `go build` directly.
