Имя (Name)
pmdazswap - zswap (compressed swap) PMDA
Описание (Description)
pmdazswap is a Performance Metrics Domain Agent (PMDA) which
exports metric values about compressed swap operation, as tracked
by the zswap Linux kernel module.
Zswap is a lightweight compressed cache for swap pages. It takes
pages that are in the process of being swapped out and attempts
to compress them into a dynamically allocated RAM-based memory
pool. Zswap trades CPU cycles for potentially reduced swap I/O.
This tradeoff can also result in a performance improvement if
reads from the compressed cache are faster than reads from a swap
device.
This PMDA exports metrics about pool size, number of pages
stored, and various counters for the reasons pages are rejected.
Установка (Installation)
Install the zswap PMDA by using the Install script as root:
# cd $PCP_PMDAS_DIR/zswap
# ./Install
To uninstall, do the following as root:
# cd $PCP_PMDAS_DIR/zswap
# ./Remove
pmdazswap 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.

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).
