pmdaroot - a privileged PMCD helper performance metrics domain
agent
Синопсис (Synopsis)
$PCP_PMDAS_DIR/root/pmdaroot [-d domain] [-l logfile] [-s
sockname]
Описание (Description)
pmdaroot is a special Performance Metrics Domain Agent (PMDA)
which cooperates closely with pmcd(1) and other PMDAs to provide
limited privileged services to these unprivileged processes.
In this role it is used to discover operating system containers
running on the local host. It also enables access to performance
data from within those containers by other PMDAs running on the
bare-metal host, using the pmdaRootConnect(3) and the associated
namespace interfaces.
Like all other PMDAs, it also exports performance metrics from
the domain it controls. Currently, this is limited to
information about the containers on the local system; currently
Docker and LXC containers can be detected.
If a non-default Docker parent-cgroup name is being used, this
value can be indicated to pmdaroot through addition of a
$PCP_SYSTEMD_CGROUP variable in /etc/pcp.conf.
-d It is absolutely crucial that the performance metrics domain
number specified here is unique and consistent. That is,
domain should be different for every PMDA on the one host,
and the same domain number should be used for the same PMDA
on all hosts.
-l Location of the log file. By default, a log file named
root.log is written in the current directory of pmcd(1) when
pmdaroot is started, i.e. $PCP_LOG_DIR/pmcd. If the log
file cannot be created or is not writable, output is written
to the standard error instead.
-s Location of the unix(7) domain socket for communication with
clients seeking privileged operations. By default, a socket
file named $PCP_TMP_DIR/pmcd/root.socket is used.
Установка (Installation)
Access to the names, help text and values for the kernel
performance metrics is available by default - unlike most other
agents, no action is required to enable them and they should not
be removed.
Файлы (Files)
$PCP_PMDAS_DIR/root/help
default help text file for metrics exported by the root
PMDA.
$PCP_LOG_DIR/pmcd/root.log
default log file for error messages and other information
from the root PMDA.
$PCP_VAR_DIR/pmcd/root.socket
default socket file for communication with root PMDA
clients.
Окружение PCP (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).
