Yeah good point, but that would be probably noticable on very slow
(like PIII 800 slow) machines with tons of rrd, and then machine would
run out of disk bandwidth first.

Yeah, very good idea, i didnt thougth about that (well tbh. i didnt
looked much into "interiors" of rrdtool plugin). Ive implemented it in
attached patch, so far ive been testing it for about 1 hour and works
pretty well.

Yup, exactly as u said, its much quicker like that.
Im wondering how config variable should be called, name
"RandomTimeout" dont mean anything useful ("random timeout of what?"),
maybe TimeoutSpread ? RandomizeTimeout ?

Random write timeout for rrdtool plugin
Hi,
i was thinking how to "spread out" writes to rrd files a bit, because
now its big spike every CacheTimeout or little smaller "square" on
graph if u use WritesPerSecond. So ive written little patch which
"spreads out" writing by changing Cache timeout every time rrdtool
plugin finds data to save. Basically instead of moving data older than
CacheTimeout to write queue it moves it if its older than CacheTimeout
+- RandomTimeout. What it changes?
Without it, gathered data is "synchronised" with eachother, for
example (CacheTimeout = 600):
1.collectd starts
2. after 10 minutes, data from all plugins get "too old" and get
pushed into write queue and get saved
3. after another 10 minutes, same thing, all data "ages" at same time
and get saved in one big chunk
With it (RandomTimeout=300) it works like that
1. collectd starts
2. after 5 minutes some data (lets call it A) starts to go into write queue
3. after 10 minutes from start about 50% (on average) data is saved
(lets call it B)
4. finally, after 15 minutes, all "leftover" data gets saved (lets call it C)
5. next "cycle"
6. data A ages first (cos it was put to disk first) and like before,
some of it gets writen earlier, some of it gets written later)
7. after that data B ages and like before writes are spread over 10 mins
8. same with C
so first cycle (looking at i/o) looks like sinus, next 10 minute cycle
is same sinus but flattened a bit and so on (looks like fading sinus),
and after few cycles it gives pretty much same amount on writes per
sec, no ugly spikes.
Effect looks like that:

src/utils_cache.c: Update GETVAL output when missing state.
Hi
I think that I've found a bug when use unixsock plugin. The problem is
releate with missing state, when no value is received by daemon for a
while in the cache is marked as MISSING, but the last value is still
showing even when machine is not reporting in a GETVAL and LISTVAL
commands. Some utlities like collectd-nagios does not work correctly,
and report an OKAY value when host is not reporting from a long time.
I attach a patch with check the state value of an cache entry in
uc_get_names and in uc_get_rate_by_name. This patch works for me, but
it's not very tested yet, and I not very sure about if it's a good way
to check the problem. The patch is tested on 4.7.2 release version.
BTW a GETSTATE command will be an useful feature too :P

These two new functions can be used to get historical data of values in

The current implementation is probably not yet perfect:
- If not enough values are available to satisfy the request, the buffer
will be enlarged and NaNs will be returned in the newly allocated
cells. The caller has no way to recognize this case.
- If a value is missing, no NaNs will be added to the cache. It's
unclear if this was desirable.
- The returned values are reversed, i. e. val[0] will be the newest
value, val[n-1] will be the oldest. Here, too, I'm unsure which way
is easier to comprehend / use. I went for this implementation because
it was easier to write.

for example,
calculate the percentage of the "used" DS.

Fix a bug with recording of port
Port was getting written to plugin_instance as "1978.00000", because
apparently that's the value returned by the config.

Changes suggested by Sebastian Harl.
* Separate Host and Port in config, report Host as hostname, and Port as
plugin instance.
* Submit before closing connection.
* Else-case in config, in case of invalid config params.
* Flounder around at using pkg-config in configure.in
* Remove forward declarations.
* Include plugin in config summary.
