that'd drop all old statistics, and be a bit of a nuisance to upgrade inside a cluster (old nodes get stuff they do not comprehend). We may rather want to have a new, separate, file for this. We could add general support for and error handling now, and to the final add with 7.0 next year or so. Maybe there's even a way to add it now without other nodes producing errors, but from top of my head I am not sure.. In Proxmox Backup Server we have each metric in a separate file, makes it a bit easier to extend on. # ls -l /var/lib/proxmox-backup/rrdb/host/ total 160 -rw-r--r-- 1 backup backup 6008 Oct 23 07:45 cpu -rw-r--r-- 1 backup backup 6008 Oct 23 07:45 io_ticks -rw-r--r-- 1 backup backup 6008 Oct 23 07:45 iowait -rw-r--r-- 1 backup backup 6008 Oct 23 07:45 loadavg -rw-r--r-- 1 backup backup 6008 Oct 23 07:45 memtotal -rw-r--r-- 1 backup backup 6008 Oct 23 07:45 memused -rw-r--r-- 1 backup backup 6008 Oct 23 07:45 netin -rw-r--r-- 1 backup backup 6008 Oct 23 07:45 netout -rw-r--r-- 1 backup backup 6008 Oct 23 07:45 read_bytes -rw-r--r-- 1 backup backup 6008 Oct 23 07:45 read_ios -rw-r--r-- 1 backup backup 6008 Jun 4 18:03 read_ticks -rw-r--r-- 1 backup backup 6008 May 28 13:00 roottotal -rw-r--r-- 1 backup backup 6008 May 28 13:00 rootused -rw-r--r-- 1 backup backup 6008 Oct 23 07:45 swaptotal -rw-r--r-- 1 backup backup 6008 Oct 23 07:45 swapused -rw-r--r-- 1 backup backup 6008 Oct 23 07:45 total -rw-r--r-- 1 backup backup 6008 Oct 23 07:45 used -rw-r--r-- 1 backup backup 6008 Oct 23 07:45 write_bytes -rw-r--r-- 1 backup backup 6008 Oct 23 07:45 write_ios -rw-r--r-- 1 backup backup 6008 Jun 4 18:03 write_ticks We could say we keep the base stuff as is in a single file and add the new one with a "<vmid>.<metric-name>" scheme. _______________________________________________ pve-devel mailing list pve-devel@lists.proxmox.com https://lists.proxmox.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pve-devel
