A list of changes since the last open source release (which was version 2.3.1-4) is in /usr/doc/pcp-2.3.2/CHANGELOG after installation, or at http://oss.sgi.com/projects/pcp/latest.html There are pre-built RPMs for i386 and ia64 platforms in the above ftp directory. Other platforms will need to build RPMs from either the SRPM or from the tarball, e.g. : # tar xvzf pcp-2.3.2-4.src.tar.gz # cd pcp-2.3.2 # ./Makepkgs PCP is an extensible system monitoring package with a client/server architecture. It provides a distributed unifying abstraction for all interesting performance statistics in /proc and assorted applications (e.g. Apache). The PCP library APIs are robust and well documented, supporting rapid deployment of new and diverse sources of performance data and the development of sophisticated performance monitoring tools. The PCP homepage is at http://oss.sgi.com/projects/pcp and you can join the PCP mailing list via http://oss.sgi.com/projects/pcp/mail.html SGI would like to thank those who contributed to this and earlier releases.

Ken is handling this and he's been too busy lately .. he'll get around to it asap (which probably doesn't mean "real-soon").

So far I've noticed (a) disk stats have moved from /proc/partitions to /proc/diskstats, and (b) there are additional cpu metrics in /proc/stat. At this stage I'm only really interested in what's changed, not what's new i.e. I want to get PCP working correctly for 2.6 kernels before we add support for metrics that are new to 2.6.
