PMDAKVM(1)
NAME
pmdakvm - Linux virtualisation performance metrics domain agent (PMDA)
DESCRIPTION
pmdakvm is a Performance Metrics Domain Agent (PMDA) which exports
metric values from the Linux KVM virtualisation subsystem.
Unlike many PMDAs it dynamically enumerates its metric hierarchy, based
entirely on the contents of /sys/kernel/debug/kvm.
INSTALLATION
- If you want access to the names and values for the kvm performance
metrics, do the following as root: - # cd $PCP_PMDAS_DIR/kvm
# ./Install - If you want to undo the installation, do the following as root:
# cd $PCP_PMDAS_DIR/kvm
# ./Remove- pmdakvm is launched by pmcd(1) and should never be executed directly. The Install and Remove scripts notify pmcd(1) when the agent is installed or removed.
