Hi, I have a question concerning the /--type/ option when using the command line in order to plugin metrics into Gmond.
What is exactly the use of specified unit (such as int8|uint8|int16|uint16|int32|uint32) , is it for storage purpose ? I also noticed that when declaring the /--type/ as int32 or float, the metrics function identically. What is exactly the difference between these types? For example, the following command was accepted in spite of the fact that 11.652 isn't integer : /"/usr/bin/gmetric --name="sensor AMC-0 PWR 12V" --value=11.652 --type=int32 --units="Volts" --spoof=172.30.16.129:STATION_B" / Thank you very much, Linda Dobai ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
