6 pmdanutcracker - NutCracker performance metrics domain agent (PMDA)
7
9 This PMDA extracts performance data from NutCracker (or TwemProxy), a
10 fast and lightweight proxy for memcached and Redis protocol.
11
13 Configure to export statistics via its stats interface (see --stats-
14 port option to the nutcracker server). The corresponding configuration
15 must be reflected in the $PCP_PMDAS_DIR/nutcracker/nutcracker.conf
16 file.
17
18 # cd $PCP_PMDAS_DIR/nutcracker
19 # [ edit nutcracker.conf ]
20
21 Once this is setup, you can access the names and values for the nut‐
22 cracker performance metrics by doing the following as root:
23
24 # cd $PCP_PMDAS_DIR/nutcracker
25 # ./Install
26
27 To uninstall, do the following as root:
28
29 # cd $PCP_PMDAS_DIR/nutcracker
30 # ./Remove

32 pmdanutcracker is launched by pmcd(1) and should never be executed
33 directly. The Install and Remove scripts notify pmcd(1) when the agent
34 is installed or removed.

52 file and directory names used by PCP. On each installation, the file
53 /etc/pcp.conf contains the local values for these variables. The
54 $PCP_CONF variable may be used to specify an alternative configuration
55 file, as described in pcp.conf(5).
