Hey Max,
Few questions for you, now we've started looking into using
the MMV library + agent a bit here.
- how does one create an instantaneous value? (like, number
of users, length of a queue, etc).
- what is the MMV_ENTRY_DISCRETE type? (seems to become a
PM_SEM_DISCRETE metric that changes and has some state
associated with it?)
- was there are pmdammv(1) man page at any point?
- did you consider string values? (no support currently, afaict,
but did you have a design in mind for implementing that?)
More will follow as we dig deeper. We'll probably produce a
Perl binding for exercising the API easily, and instrumenting
Perl scripts, as well as a Java language implementation of the
client side of things (which we plan to use for some production
monitoring).
thanks!
