unable to generate task for perevents plugin

[imvisiontech]

Hi,
I'm currently trying to run perfevent task and I get a several failures: "connection is shut down" (I think it follows an EOF expection) and in turn the error changes to "could not select a plugin". the collected metrics are taken from the snapctl metric list for the perfevent plugin. I am using snapd version 1.3. Is it a known issue?
I am running on ubuntu release 14.04
and it seems that the path for the metadata that I found through perf stats is different then that suggested for perevenets using the ./snapctl metrics list

@imvisiontech, please review intelsdi-x/snap#1456, and see if the daemon control setting max_plugin_restarts to a high value resolve this. If you are able to try the latest build, you can set max_plugin_restarts: -1 to disable this behavior. We also provided additional logging message to indicate the plugin has been disabled due to multiple failures:

level=warning msg="plugin disabled due to exceeding restart limit: 10"

A linux test build of the latest version of snap is available at:
