What's the problem with MEGA conversion in collector.conf? |
|
|
In the user guide, it describes an option, MEGA, which can be used to convert a value into megabytes. When applied as follows, the value always reports 0 (zero):
VARIABLE U_INT { VMem } = { VMem } MEGA;
Measurements, if not converted into MB by the collector, are considered illegal (too high) by the client and are displayed as zero.
The documentation is incorrect, but there is a way around this. To get the variables in MEG, follow these steps:
1. Change the line in collector.conf
from
VARIABLE U_INT { VMem } = { VMem } MEGA;
to
VARIABLE U_INT { VMem } = { VMem };
2. Edit the vpcom.conf file, and add the following (remember not to take the line literally, you have to have the syntax correct):
GROUP "Workloads"
ARRAY NAME = {Workloads.Name}
.
.
.
VARIABLE {VMemk} = {Workloads.Vmem, uint32, mbytes}
^
END ARRAY "
END GROUP "
This is what shows up on the PC. You can change it to "m" or "g" or whatever you want.
