Hi all,

The 3.2.0 release of PCP has been tagged in the git tree, and
initial source and binary packages uploaded to oss.sgi.com for
you to download.  At this stage, Mac OS X and Debian(/Ubuntu)
packages are up, Solaris and Windows (and rpms for that matter)
will follow over the weekend or early next week.

Changes in this release include...

pcp-3.2.0 (29 April 2010)
    - Change how PM_CONTEXT_LOCAL determines available PMDAs:
      rework local context code to retire $PMDA_LOCAL_*, build DSO table
      from pmcd.conf at run-time, new __pmLocalPMDA and __pmSpecLocalPMDA
      routines in libpcp, -K options for pminfo, pmval and pmprobe.
    - Make some pmda dynamic name operations take (const char *) args.
    - Fix bash completion so dynamic names expanded, and stderr culled
      (culling DSO agent initialisation messages).
    - Improve pmlogger handling of alias names (same PMID, different names).
    - Honour the -T command line option in pmlogreduce.
    - Resolve an MMV issue evident in the Mac OS X installer, which resulted
      in failed dmg (binary) installation attempts.
    - Solaris startup script improvements.
    - Add details of the extended hostname syntax to pcpintro(1).
    - Fix a memory leak in pmdawindows help text handling.
    - Fix a memory leak in pmdammv help text handling.
    - Add anonymous huge page Linux memory utilisation metric.
    - Fix local context reporting of help text.
    - Solaris man page build changes.
    - Clean up diagnostic messages in pmlogextract.
    - Teach pmdaproc about Solaris' ping.
    - If pmstat fails to connect to local pmcd, fallback to local context.
    - Mark as const the final (requested units) pmConvScale argument
    - Clean out SGI-isms from build related files (no longer used by SGI).
    - Fix mem.numa.util.NFS_Unstable metric.
    - Removed pmdajstat, this has long been superceded by the capabilities
      of the Parfait package for instrumenting Java applications with PCP.

Thanks to all involved!

cheers.
