I'd like to hear what the system accounting guys are intending to do with them before proceeding, please. |

Andrew, These data are used in CSA Accounting today and i believe ELSA intends to use them also. Since PAGG is not in the tree, SGI have been offering our customers PAGG/JOB/CSA kernel code as either kernel patches at oss.sgi.com site or out-of-tree kernel modules today. SGI intends to submit another solution for PAGG/JOB soon. Once the future of PAGG/JOB becomes clear, we will know better how to integrate CSA and BSD accounting. We are not sitting on it.

To wait and see what the system accounting guys come up with. If we export this info in /proc then it'll need to remain exported for ever. So if/when the system accounting people export it by other means, the info will be duplicated. |
