Hi Otis. I think this approach is much better in very big servers ( I usually work in servers with up to 40 cores ) and is easier to parse a single line on /proc/stats than calculate 40* 8 ( metrics/core) averages values.
It also makes to have simpler config files ( avoiding average plugin). I will do a pull request in next days on this week. Thanks a lot !! 2013/11/16 Otis Gospodnetic <[email protected]> > Hi Toni, > > Would it be better to issue a PR at > https://github.com/collectd/collectdinstead? > > Q: why is this approach better than using the aggregate functionality? > > Thanks, > Otis > -- > Performance Monitoring * Log Analytics * Search Analytics > Solr & Elasticsearch Support * http://sematext.com/ > > > On Wed, Nov 6, 2013 at 8:24 AM, Toni Moreno <[email protected]> wrote: > >> Hi. >> >> I've been working on get global average CPU , from the cpu plugin better >> than use the "aggregate" to get the same values. >> >> I've attached a patch for the cpu plugin. >> >> with this patch you will get a new "plugin-instance" named "global" , >> with % average of all cpu cores . >> >> I've obtained these values from the same proc file that cpu plugin uses >> for the other cores. >> >> NOTE: This patch is only for linux. >> >> >> I hope you can enjoy it >> >> >> >> >> -- >> >> Att >> >> Toni Moreno >> >> 699706656 >> >> >> >> *Si no quieres perderte en el olvido tan pronto como estés muerto y >> corrompido, * >> >> *escribe cosas dignas de leerse, o haz cosas dignas de escribirse.* >> >> >> >> *Benjamin Franklin* >> >> _______________________________________________ >> collectd mailing list >> [email protected] >> http://mailman.verplant.org/listinfo/collectd >> >> > -- Att Toni Moreno 699706656 *Si no quieres perderte en el olvido tan pronto como estés muerto y corrompido, * *escribe cosas dignas de leerse, o haz cosas dignas de escribirse.* *Benjamin Franklin*
