NAME

       pmdanginx - nginx performance metrics domain agent (PMDA)

DESCRIPTION

       pmdanginx is a Performance Metrics Domain Agent (PMDA) which exports metric values from
       nginx.

INSTALLATION

       This PMDA requires that the nginx stub_status module is active and available at
       http://localhost/nginx_status

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

               # cd $PCP_PMDAS_DIR/nginx
               # ./Install

       To uninstall, do the following as root:

               # cd $PCP_PMDAS_DIR/nginx
               # ./Remove

       pmdanginx 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.
