Leif Hedstrom updated TS-3183:
------------------------------
Labels: compatibility (was: )
> Clean up (and/or eliminate?) proxy.node metrics
> -----------------------------------------------
>
> Key: TS-3183
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TS-3183
> Project: Traffic Server
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Metrics
> Reporter: Leif Hedstrom
> Labels: compatibility
> Fix For: 6.0.0
>
>
> There's two types of metrics it seems, proxy.node and proxy.process.
> Unfortunately, in at least a few cases, the same metrics get duplicated into
> both. I'm not sure why that makes sense, ever, so I think we should clean
> that up. That would certainly make it less confusing.
> Secondly, it seems proxy.node metrics, which are registered via
> RecordsConfig.cc, are primarily used for computed metrics. These are metrics
> synthesized via the stats.config.xml mechanism. Albeit being useful, what's
> bad with the current design here is that adding new metrics to the XML config
> file still requires a change to RecordsConfig.cc. This makes no sense to me,
> so perhaps the proxy.node metrics should all be eliminated from
> RecordsConfig.cc, and exclusively owned (registered and updated) via the XML
> config format.
> Elimination, or renaming, of any of these metrics would be an incompatible
> change. Therefore, it would go into 6.0.0.
