You can create your own metric collectors that the Monitor service executes and reports the results to the Ecosystem Manager server. To create a metric collector, you need to create a class that implements the com.teradata.tmsm.da.monitor.components.Monitor interface using two methods: collectStats and getStat. The execution environment of the metric collector first invokes the collectStats method, followed by an iterated loop of calls to getStat for each child metric specified under the metricCollector element.
