collectd is a small and modular daemon which collects system information periodically and provides means to store the values. Included in the distribution are numerous plug-ins for collecting CPU, disk, and memory usage, network interface and DNS traffic, network latency, database statistics, and much more. Custom statistics can easily be added in a number of ways, including execution of arbitrary programs and plug-ins written in Perl. Advanced features include a powerful network code to collect statistics for entire setups and SNMP integration to query network equipment. License: GNU General Public License (GPL) Changes: Handling of libraries in non-standard paths has been improved in the build system. Portability has been improved: the _REENTRANT flag is now set automatically if needed and the BYTE_ORDER and BIG_ENDIAN defines are checked more thoroughly. Some error and warning messages have been improved in the daemon and the hddtemp plugin. The buffer in the Apache plugin is now allocated dynamically. The exec plugin now closes all unnecessary file descriptors before executing an application. A bug in the sensors plugin that prevented some chips from being collected using libsensors2 was fixed.
