[pve-devel] [PATCH-SERIES cluster/common/qemu-server/lxc/manager] add new metric stats in single rrd

[DERUMIER, Alexandre]

Hi Thomas,

for pressure, I don't really need rrd or history, as I can already
broadcast last 10s,60s, 300s.
so could simply broadcast them in kvstore.

This was the original patch in 2020
https://lists.proxmox.com/pipermail/pve-devel/2020-October/045493.html

but Dietmar asked about to put them in rrd ;)

So, as you want, just tell me :)

I don't care about rrd for my need. 

Anyway, For vm balancing, I was planning to compute average metric
instead parsing at lot of rrd.


for ksm, I really need current value

for qemu hostcpu/hostmem, last (1-5) minutes average could be enough,
so I could compute from pvestatd too.
