symon 2.83 sysutils =9

Performance and information monitoring tool
Maintained by: uqs@FreeBSD.org

License: not specified in port

The symon project consists of three parts; a data monitor, a data consolidator
and a data displayer. 

symon is a is a lightweight system monitor that measures cpu, memory, pf,
interface and disk statistics every 5 seconds. It sends this data on to symux
for further processing. symon has been designed to inflict minimal performance
and security impact -- it can be run as nobody on the system it monitors. 

symux is a non-privileged daemon that listens to incoming symon traffic. symux
can write the incoming symon streams into rrd files. Clients interested in
monitoring machine state can also log into symux and receive data as ascii as
it arrives.

  Affects: users of sysutils/symon

  Author: uspoerlein@gmail.com

  Reason: 
    The symon port has been updated from 2.75 to 2.78. It changes the wire
    protocol again. You should update your symux(8) and symon(8) installations
    simultaneously, as:
  
      - new symon clients will make old symux servers exit, and
      - new symux servers don't understand the old symon client's if() and
        mem() probes.
  
  

In the rc.d scripts, change assignments to rcvar to use the
literal name_enable wherever possible, and ${name}_enable
when it's not, to prepare for the demise of set_rcvar().

In cases where I had to hand-edit unusual instances also
modify formatting slightly to be more uniform (and in
some cases, correct). This includes adding some $FreeBSD$
tags, and most importantly moving rcvar= to right after
name= so it's clear that one is derived from the other.

Update symon to 2.83

Use MASTER_SITE_SUBDIR instead of rolling my own.

First steps in a big migration:

    Move net/rrdtool to databases/rrdtool.

    It's an itch which needs to be scratched: net/rrdtool came from
    net/mrtg, which was a good location for it. net/mrtg has later
    been moved to net-mgmt/mrtg. net/rrdtool is "Round Robin Database
    Tools", therefor it's better if it moves to databases/rrdtool.
    Same with net/rrdtool10.

Remove the FreeBSD KEYWORD from all rc.d scripts where it appears.
We have not checked for this KEYWORD for a long time now, so this
is a complete noop, and thus no PORTREVISION bump. Removing it at
this point is mostly for pedantic reasons, and partly to avoid
perpetuating this anachronism by copy and paste to future scripts.
