Description-en: statistics collection and monitoring daemon (utilities)
collectd is a small daemon which collects system information periodically and
provides mechanisms to monitor and store the values in a variety of ways.
Since the daemon doesn't need to startup every time it wants to update the
values it's very fast and easy on the system. Also, the statistics are very
fine grained since the files are updated every 10 seconds by default.
.
This package contains the following utility:
.
* collectdctl: Control interface for collectd
* collectd-nagios: Nagios plugin for querying collectd
