Is there any way from the server side to get an estimate of overall
client data change rate?
I'm doing this, crudely, right now as I try to characterize our
hosting customers behavior, to identify outliers.
Here's what I'm doing:
1: sum "Yesterday's" sessions, per-node. This is from the actlogs.
2: total filespace capacity, per-node.
3: Divide 1 by 2.
4: Discard outliers. I have some zeroes, and I have some 100+ %: the
latter tend to be database backups and erroenous reads on capacity
(like a nas filespace which is technically terabytes large, but
looks small on a 'q filespace').
5: Do (elementary) statistics on the results.
