Hi,
in plugin descriptor, there can be a metric definition with unit type
"epoch_milliseconds" or "epoch_seconds" (rhq-configuration.xsd allows
it). What kind of metric should could be represented by epoch_milliseconds? Shouldn't
the exact time moments (what values epoch_milliseconds represent) be addressed rather by
traits?
I am asking because the values of this type are not formatted
(
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=857144).
I think these two unit types should be removed from MeasurementUnits and xml schema,
however there might be some plugins out there using it, so what about deprecation? Are
there any edge cases, when these unit types do make sense?
