Hello,

We are in the process of writing a few pmdas and assuming all goes well would make them publicly available. I have a few questions on the best way of going about this. We have written and are currently testing pmdas for the Panasas file system ( https://www.panasas.com/ ) and for NVML ( https://developer.nvidia.com/nvidia-management-library-nvml ). Can we reserve PMID's for these so we don't conflict with anything else?

When complete, would we host these ourselves for download or is there interest in incorporating them into pcp? I ask because for instance we use the Infiniband PMDA which is not distributed by default with PCP anymore. Is the expectation that niche pmdas like this would live outside the main tree? They both require 3rd party APIs in order to build/test/run.

Thanks

Martins
