collector-sample-rate unrecognized option

Post #1 of 6 (1549 views)

Does --collector-sample-rate require a valid license? I'm running in demo
mode and get unrecognized option recently.

/usr/local/bin/nprobe -n 10.x.x.x:9996 -n 10.x.x.x:9996 --zmq tcp://
127.0.0.01:5556 -X 200000 --collector-sample-rate 10

/usr/local/bin/nprobe: unrecognized option '--collector-sample-rate'

Ryan
that option has been reworked. Can you please tell me where you read of it that we need to fix the documentation?

This said this is the option you need to use.

Thanks Luca

That option is still in the current nprobe users guide. Also about a year
ago I wrote to the mailing list and Simone had recommended the setting

Thanks for pointing that out. I've updated the userguide with the new option format along with a quite detailed meaning and description of the option values.

Could you copy that here if the PDF update on github will be far out?
