NAME

6       pmdakvm - Linux virtualisation performance metrics domain agent (PMDA)
7

DESCRIPTION

9       pmdakvm is a Performance Metrics Domain Agent (PMDA) which exports
10       metric values from the Linux KVM virtualisation subsystem.
11
12       Unlike many PMDAs it dynamically enumerates its metric hierarchy, based
13       entirely on the contents of /sys/kernel/debug/kvm.
14

INSTALLATION

16       If you want access to the names and values for the kvm performance
17       metrics, do the following as root:
18
19               # cd $PCP_PMDAS_DIR/kvm
20               # ./Install
21
22       If you want to undo the installation, do the following as root:
23
24               # cd $PCP_PMDAS_DIR/kvm
25               # ./Remove
26
27       pmdakvm is launched by pmcd(1) and should never be executed directly.
28       The Install and Remove scripts notify pmcd(1) when the agent is
29       installed or removed.
