Description:
cricket - Program for collection and display of time-series data
Closes: 80238
Changes:
cricket (1.0.2-5) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Added a daily cron job to clean out /var/cache/cricket. This
directory can contain a fixed maximum number of files (determined
roughly by the number of targets in the config tree), but once a file
is created, it is almost never removed. (Closes: #80238)
* Fixed some questionable upstream defaults. I'd wanted to change these
for a long time, but was hesitant to diverge from upstream, lest
I break configuration compatibility and violate the principle of least
surprise. I have since learned that these defaults will be changed in
the next upstream release (1.0.3), so I went ahead and made the
changes. They are:
- Use bytes=false for the ifInOctets and ifOutOctets targets. This
means that kb/sec, mb/sec, etc. will be computed as powers of 10 (1k
= 10^3 = 1000) rather than powers of 2 (1k = 2^10 = 1024). Much
discussion on the cricket-users list has revealed that this is what
people expect.
- Use rrd-ds-type=DERIVE and rrd-min=0 for the default datasource. This
means that new targets will be created so that if the current sample
of a counter is less than the previous sample, it will be discarded.
Previously, it would be assumed that the counter had overflowed, and
rrdtool would try to correct for that, assuming a 32-bit or 64-bit
counter. This would cause large, bogus spikes when an SNMP device was
reset. The vast majority of users would rather lose a sample in this
case (and when a counter overflow occurs) than get a bogus one.
