-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora EPEL Update Notification FEDORA-EPEL-2017-7c22614b28 2017-05-01 18:12:18.216027 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Name : collectd Product : Fedora EPEL 6 Version : 4.10.9 Release : 4.el6 URL : http://collectd.org/ Summary : Statistics collection daemon for filling RRD files Description : collectd is a small daemon written in C for performance. It reads various system statistics and updates RRD files, creating them if necessary. Since the daemon doesn't need to startup every time it wants to update the files it's very fast and easy on the system. Also, the statistics are very fine grained since the files are updated every 10 seconds.
