Hi, I recently came across collect and was impressed by its functionality and modular design. Great work!
There is just one piece missing, which actually would be very important for me to make use of it: A possibility to specifiy intervals on a per-plugin basis. There are some counters which I need quite often (let's say, most OS statistics as cpu, network etc.), and some statistics which are rather expensive to collect and only change infrequently anyway (retrieved through some Oracle DB queries). For the first set of data I would need at least 10 second intervals, while the DB stuff should not be queried more often than once an hour. Those two intervals are so wide apart that it's impossible to find any useful "compromise" here. Browsing through your archives I've found some discussions from February this year about the exact same topic. Do you have any plans to implement such a feature in the near future (somehow generic for all plugins)? For my current purpose it might be sufficient to have such intervals for the oracle (and maybe Exec, GenericJMX and Java) plugins, but of course a generic solution would be even better. Thanks for your help, and again my respect for this great tool! Nick. _______________________________________________ collectd mailing list collectd@verplant.org http://mailman.verplant.org/listinfo/collectd
