NAME

Plugin_clock - man page for the LDMS clock plugin

SYNOPSIS

Within ldmsd_controller or a configuration file:

config name=clock [ <attr>=<value> ]

DESCRIPTION

The clock plugin provides a counter of samples taken since it started. This is of pedagogical interest and useful for detecting situations where a sample is missed either in being taken or in transmission.

CONFIGURATION ATTRIBUTE SYNTAX

The clock plugin uses the sampler_base base class. This man page covers only the configuration attributes, or those with default values, specific to the this plugin; see ldms_sampler_base.man for the attributes of the base class.

config

name=<plugin_name> [schema=<sname>]

configuration line

name=<plugin_name>

This MUST be clock

schema=<schema>

Optional schema name. It is intended that the same sampler on different nodes with different metrics have a different schema. If not specified, will default to `clock`.

BUGS

No known bugs.

EXAMPLES

Within ldmsd_controller or a configuration file:

load name=clock
config name=clock producer=vm1_1 instance=vm1_1/clock
start name=clock interval=1000000 offset=0
