mmv metric does not show up in pmlogger archives

[Rares Vernica <rvernica@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

I am probably doing something wrong, but I am not sure what. I defined an mmv metric and I am having trouble getting it to show up in the pmlogger archives. Here is what I have done.

The mmv metrics show up in pminfo and pmval:

$ pminfo -t mmv

mmv.acme.products.queuetime [Queued time while producing Acme products]

mmv.acme.products.time [Machine time spent producing Acme products]

mmv.acme.products.count [Acme factory product throughput]

$ pmval mmv.acme.products.queuetimeÂ

metric: Â Âmmv.acme.products.queuetime

host: Â Â Âbeaglebone-12

semantics: cumulative counter (converting to rate)

units: Â Â microsec (converting to time utilization)

samples: Â all

      Anvils        Rockets  ÂGiant_Rubber_Bands  Â

       Â0.0          0.0          0.0

I added the mmv metrics to config.default and I am using the config.default in the pmlogger control file:

$ cat /etc/pcp/pmlogger/config.default

...

# It is safe to make additions from here on ...

#

log advisory on default {

    mmv.iontouch

}

[access]

disallow .* : all;

disallow :* : all;

allow local:* : enquire;

$ cat /etc/pcp/pmlogger/controlÂ

# local primary logger

#

# (LOCALHOSTNAME is expanded to local: in the first column,

# and to `hostname` in the fourth (directory) column.)

#

LOCALHOSTNAME y  n PCP_LOG_DIR/pmlogger/LOCALHOSTNAME -r -T24h10m -c config.default

pmlogger is running fine:

$ pcp

Performance Co-Pilot configuration on beaglebone-12:

Âplatform: Linux beaglebone-12 3.8.13-bone79 #1 SMP Tue Oct 13 20:44:55 UTC 2015 armv7l

  Âpmda: root pmcd proc xfs linux mmv jbd2

Âpmlogger: primary logger: /var/log/pcp/pmlogger/beaglebone-12/20160222.16.21

But I can't find the mmv metrics in any of the log files:

$ for f in /var/log/pcp/pmlogger/beaglebone-12/*.0; do pminfo -a $f mmv; doneÂ

Error: mmv: Unknown metric name

...

$ for f in /var/log/pcp/pmlogger/beaglebone-12/*.0; do pmval -a $f mmv.acme.products.queuetime; doneÂ

pmval: pmLookupName(mmv.acme.products.queuetime): Unknown metric name

...

Some hints would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
