collectd *intentionally* report metrics
as rates, not as absolute<br>
values as Vdsm does. This may be one
issue in presence of restarts/data<br>
loss in the link between collectd and
the metrics store.<br>

I was imprecise, my fault.<br>
<br>
Let me retry:<br>
collectd intentionally report quite a lot of metrics we
care about as rates, not as absolute values.<br>
Memory is actually ok fine.<br>
<br>
a0/virt/disk_octets-hdc -> rate<br>
a0/virt/disk_octets-vda<br>
a0/virt/disk_ops-hdc -> rate<br>
a0/virt/disk_ops-vda<br>
a0/virt/disk_time-hdc -> rate<br>
a0/virt/disk_time-vda<br>
a0/virt/if_dropped-vnet0 -> rate<br>
a0/virt/if_errors-vnet0 -> rate<br>
a0/virt/if_octets-vnet0 -> rate<br>
a0/virt/if_packets-vnet0 -> rate<br>
a0/virt/memory-actual_balloon -> absolute<br>
a0/virt/memory-rss -> absolute<br>
a0/virt/memory-total -> absolute<br>
a0/virt/ps_cputime -> rate<br>
a0/virt/total_requests-flush-h<wbr>dc -> rate<br>
a0/virt/total_requests-flush-v<wbr>da<br>
a0/virt/total_time_in_ms-flush<wbr>-hdc -> rate<br>
a0/virt/total_time_in_ms-flush<wbr>-vda<br>
a0/virt/virt_cpu_total -> rate<br>
a0/virt/virt_vcpu-0 -> rate<br>
a0/virt/virt_vcpu-1<br>
<br>
collectd "just" reports the changes since the last
sampling. I'm not sure which is the best way to handle
that; I've sent a mail to collectd list some time ago,
no answer so far.</div>

<div>Can you CC on that thread?</div>
<div>I don't know how ES would work with rates at all. </div>
<div>I want to be able to show CPU usage over time and I
need to know if its 80% or 10%.</div>

Thanks to the awkward gmail interface I can't reply to myself and CC
other people, but I can share the link:<br>
