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.

Comment 1 Nathan Scott 2019-05-30 09:42:17 UTC
Hi there,

I think this may be because -d and -a have overlapping functionality - does it work correctly if you use 'dstat -am'?

We can certainly improve the tool by simply ignoring any duplicate column (-d) requests, which should resolve the issue.

cheers.

Comment 2 LiliDeng 2019-05-31 10:37:32 UTC
Thanks for your reply, 'dstat -am' works, if -d and -a can't use at the same time, it is better to meaning hints not throw an exception.

No problem - thanks for conforming.

Yes, definitely.  I'll fix that up.

cheers.

Comment 4 Nathan Scott 2019-06-02 22:01:44 UTC
Fixed upstream, will be merged into RHEL-8 with next PCP rebase.


commit e7ad59af398d191cf49e0df15a8dc49a9a4b53db
Author: Nathan Scott <nathans>
Date:   Mon Jun 3 08:00:16 2019 +1000

    pcp-dstat: ensure duplicate columns collapse to just one
    
    If the user directly or indirectly (eg via -a) requests
    the same column multiple times, collapse this to one so
    that the screen real estate is conserved.  Old versions
    of pcp-dstat would also throw a stack trace here.
    
    Update qa/1187 with new test cases exercising this.
    
    Resolves Red Hat BZ #1715408

Comment 6 Nathan Scott 2020-04-06 06:15:17 UTC
This fix was included in RHEL 8.2 via rebase.
