Description
As part of the Performance Metrics Domain Agent (PMDA) API (see PMDA(3)), pmdaProfile is the default
callback which handles the receipt of a pmProfile from pmcd(1). A profile describes the instances that
pmcd requires in the pmResult structure returned by the next fetch. pmdaProfile simply stores the new
profile.
