NAME

       pmdagluster - Gluster Filesystem PMDA

DESCRIPTION

       pmdagluster  is  a  Performance  Metrics  Domain  Agent  (PMDA) which exports metric values about mounted
       gluster filesystems using the gluster(8) command.  This PMDA exports metrics  about  volumes  and  bricks
       both local and remote to the node where pmdagluster is running.

       The  gluster  filesystem supports fine-grained control over enabling statistics on individual volumes, so
       that the values are optionally enabled or disabled on systems where they are not desired to be monitored.

       The pmstore(1) command can be used to enable and disable profiling  of  volumes.   Using  the  individual
       instances  of  the  gluster.volume.profile  metric,  one  can set their values (and associated profiling)
       either on (1) or off (0).  Additionally, pminfo(1) can report on the current status of profiling of  each
       volume.

            # pminfo ‐f gluster.volume.profile

            gluster.volume.profile
                inst [0 or "gv0"] value 0
                inst [1 or "gv1"] value 1

            # pmstore ‐i "gv0" gluster.volume.profile 1
            gluster.volume.profile inst [0 or "gv0"] old value=0 new value=1

       Further details on the gluster filesystem can be found at http://www.gluster.org

INSTALLATION

       Install the gluster PMDA by using the Install script as root:

             # cd $PCP_PMDAS_DIR/gluster
             # ./Install

       To uninstall, do the following as root:

             # cd $PCP_PMDAS_DIR/gluster
             # ./Remove

       pmdagluster  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.

FILES

       $PCP_PMDAS_DIR/gluster/Install
           installation script for the pmdagluster agent

       $PCP_PMDAS_DIR/gluster/Remove
           undo installation script for the pmdagluster agent

       $PCP_LOG_DIR/pmcd/gluster.log
           default log file for error messages from pmdagluster

PCP ENVIRONMENT

       Environment variables with the prefix PCP_ are used to parameterize the file and directory names used  by
       PCP.  On  each  installation,  the file /etc/pcp.conf contains the local values for these variables.  The
       $PCP_CONF variable may be used to specify an alternative configuration file, as described in pcp.conf(5).
