RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Nathan Scott 2019-03-04 23:02:03 UTC

We're planning a rebase of the RHEL-8 package of PCP for 8.1.  This rebase contains many bug fixes as well as new features.  Backward compatibility is maintained (unchanged) for libraries, over-the-wire protocol and on-disk PCP archive format.

New features include addition of new metrics - Linux kernel entropy, pressure stall information, Nvidia GPU statistics - as well as updates to tools like pcp-dstat(1) and pcp-atop(1) to report these metrics.  The perfevent PMDA used extensively by partners (IBM, Fujitsu) is also updated to include several of their newly requested metrics.  A number of updates to the pmseries(1) and pmproxy(1) utility to provide a performant PCP / Grafana integration will also be included.

Comment 5 Nathan Scott 2019-05-14 03:21:57 UTC

This BZ (and related build) remains blocked from entering 8.1 due to CI/gating a week or so after the build - can I get some further assistance there please Martin/Michal?

I'm seeing other QE folk opening BZs for issues that are fixed already in this build.  :(

Comment 14 Christian Horn 2019-11-06 07:34:57 UTC

Hm.. the release notes have the incorrect "Performance Co-Pilot rebased to version 8.1".
https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/8/html-single/8.1_release_notes/index
Should we reopen this bz or open an other one?
