CPU Input Plugin

This plugin gather metrics on the system's CPUs.

⭐ Telegraf v0.1.5 🏷️ system 💻 all

Global configuration options

In addition to the plugin-specific configuration settings, plugins support additional global and plugin configuration settings. These settings are used to modify metrics, tags, and field or create aliases and configure ordering, etc. See the CONFIGURATION.md for more details.

Configuration

# Read metrics about cpu usage
[[inputs.cpu]]
  ## Whether to report per-cpu stats or not
  percpu = true
  ## Whether to report total system cpu stats or not
  totalcpu = true
  ## If true, collect raw CPU time metrics
  collect_cpu_time = false
  ## If true, compute and report the sum of all non-idle CPU states
  ## NOTE: The resulting 'time_active' field INCLUDES 'iowait'!
  report_active = false
  ## If true and the info is available then add core_id and physical_id tags
  core_tags = false

Metrics

On Linux, consult man proc for details on the meanings of these values.

• cpu
  • tags:
    • cpu (CPU ID or cpu-total)
  • fields:
    • time_user (float)
    • time_system (float)
    • time_idle (float)
    • time_active (float)
    • time_nice (float)
    • time_iowait (float)
    • time_irq (float)
    • time_softirq (float)
    • time_steal (float)
    • time_guest (float)
    • time_guest_nice (float)
    • usage_user (float, percent)
    • usage_system (float, percent)
    • usage_idle (float, percent)
    • usage_active (float)
    • usage_nice (float, percent)
    • usage_iowait (float, percent)
    • usage_irq (float, percent)
    • usage_softirq (float, percent)
    • usage_steal (float, percent)
    • usage_guest (float, percent)
    • usage_guest_nice (float, percent)

Troubleshooting

On Linux systems the /proc/stat file is used to gather CPU times. Percentages are based on the last 2 samples. Tags core_id and physical_id are read from /proc/cpuinfo on Linux systems
