cpuinfo: iowait, irq, softirq, steal

[tchjts1]

Ok, I surrender. Where are these Linux items (iowait, irq, softirq, steal) located?

I just compiled and installed 1.6.3 and they are not in the Linux template...
Are they userparameters that have to be added into agentd.conf?

Update - nevermind. You have to manually add them into the Linux template. Those metrics are a nice addition... I am surprised they do not appear as part of the template under a fresh compile of the 1.6.3 code.

Usage?

So am I right that I would add:

system.cpu.util[,iowait,avg1]

or avg5 or avg15 ?

[tchjts1]

Correct. I just added them in to the Linux template.

The "wait" parameter does not work on any of my Linux clients. Is this a backwards-compatible parameter ?
