+=head1 NAME
+
+pmdakvm - Linux virtualisation performance metrics domain agent (PMDA)
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+B<pmdakvm> is a Performance Metrics Domain Agent (PMDA) which exports
+metric values from the Linux KVM virtualisation subsystem.
+
+Unlike many PMDAs it dynamically enumerates its metric hierarchy,
+based entirely on the contents of /sys/kernel/debug/kvm.
+
+=head1 INSTALLATION
+
+If you want access to the names and values for the kvm performance
+metrics, do the following as root:
+
+ # cd $PCP_PMDAS_DIR/kvm
+ # ./Install
+
+If you want to undo the installation, do the following as root:
+
+ # cd $PCP_PMDAS_DIR/kvm
+ # ./Remove
+
+B<pmdakvm> is launched by pmcd(1) and should never be executed
+directly. The Install and Remove scripts notify pmcd(1) when
+the agent is installed or removed.
