This might be that the old "pcp" script has been divided into two:
$ sudo /sbin/chkconfig --list | grep pcp
$ sudo /sbin/chkconfig --list | grep pmcd
pmcd 0:off 1:off 2:on 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off
$ sudo /sbin/chkconfig --list | grep pmlogger
pmlogger 0:off 1:off 2:on 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off
Or it might be something else entirely.

Yep, thats a good source. Usually I just see what another pmda
(linux) does in the same situation, when I have to remind myself
on the order of those fields.
cheers.
