Tsuyoshi OZAWA updated HADOOP-10161:
------------------------------------

    Description: 
The property of dmax in ganglia is a configurable time to rotate metrics. 
Therefore no more value of the metric will be emit to the gmond, after 'dmax' 
seconds, then gmond will destroy the metric in memory. In hadoop metrics 
framework , the default value is 0, which means the gmond will never destroy 
the metric although the metric is disappeared. The gmetad daemon also does not 
delete the rrdtool file. 

We need to add a method to configure the default value of dmax for all metrics 
in hadoop.propertis.

  was:The property of dmax in ganglia configration is  metric dead time , when 
one  metrics is disappeared ,so no more value of the metric will be emtic to 
the gmond,after 'dmax' seconds,then  gmond will destroy the metric in memery . 
in hadoop metrics framework ,the default value is 0,which means the gmond will 
never destroy the  metric althought the metric is disappeared ,the gmetad 
daemon also does not delete the rrdtool file ,and  there does not have  a 
method to configure the defualt value of  dmax for all metrics .
