- - If you plan on using the Exec plugin (for OVS_PMD_STATS or for executing scripts
- on notification generation), the plugin requires a non-root
- user to execute scripts. By default, `collectd_exec` user is used in the exec.conf
- provided in the sample configurations directory under src/collectd in the Barometer
- repo. The scripts *DO NOT* create this user. You need to create this user before you
- run build_base_machine.sh. Or modify configuration in the sample configurations
- directory under src/collectd to use another existing non root user before running
- run build_base_machine.sh.

- sample config file from '/opt/collectd/etc/collectd.conf.d'
