[Hyperic-hq-discuss] Incorrect perfmon counter values

[Dustin S. <ds...@re...>]

I'm getting an incorrect value for "% Free Space".  It looks as if it's actually return the "Free Megabytes" value.

Re: [Hyperic-hq-discuss] Incorrect perfmon counter values

Hi,

Pdh.main is calling Pdh.getRawValue, you'd see the expected value with Pdh.getFormattedValue.

For this particular metric, you can also use the Sigar.getFileSystemUsage api.

btw, with HQ plugins you can add Type=Formatted to the metric template to use this method, Raw is the default.
