I wanted to know what do you think about it and if you have better

In first look, my opinion is that it can help and would be nice to
have vmStatisticService that runs and writes to separate log the vms
status.
Vdsm recently started requiring the MOM package. MOM also performs some host
and guest statistics collection as part of the policy framework. I think it
would be a really good idea to consolidate all stats collection into MOM. Then,
all stats become usable within the policy and by vdsm for its own internal
purposes. Today, MOM has one stats collection thread per VM and one thread for
the host stats. It has an API for gathering the most recently collected stats
which vdsm can use.
isn't this what collectd (and its libvirt plugin) or pcp are already doing?
Lot's of things collect statistics, but as of right now, we're using MOM and
we're not yet using collectd on the host, right?
I think we should have a single stats collection service and clients for it.
I think mom and vdsm should get their stats from that service, rather
than have either beholden to any new stats something needs to collect.
