#836 closed enhancement (fixed)

Description

Doing both config and fetch is quite inefficient for many plugins as the plugin has to do the same work for each operation. Therefore combining these into one action can halve execution time.

There is a writeup on this in the wiki: ​http://munin.projects.linpro.no/wiki/protocol-dirty-fetch

  • Milestone changed from Munin 1.4.4 to Munin 1.5

I added configdirty support in munin-update with changeset r3355 and I also upgraded the df plugin to have a working example.

==Issues left:==

  • munin-node is not updated yet. So a plugin has no way to know if the master has the capability or not. It's not really important, since the value is transparently conveyed and causes no warn or error on a vanilla 1.4 master.

  • Resolution set to fixed
  • Status changed from new to closed

The work on the munin-node is tracked in #859.
Closing this one now.
