NAME

        aemetrics - metrics values file format

SYNOPSIS

        filename,S

DESCRIPTION

        Metrics files are created at integration build time, and recorded into the file
        attributes at integration pass time.  This allows trend analysis and other statistics to
        be calculated.

CONTENTS

        metrics = [ { ... } ];
                This field is used to describe various file metrics.  It is committed during
                aeipass(1), when the file is added to the history.  The name must be given, and
                exactly one value.

                name = string;
                        This is the name of the metric.  This field must be set.

                value = real;
                        This is the value of the metric.  This field must be set.  (If you have
                        an integer-valued metric, just use integers, Aegis will cope.  If you
                        have a string-valued metric, assign integers to the enumerands.)
