The linux_cpu
plugin gathers CPU metrics exposed on Linux-based systems.
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
# Provides Linux CPU metrics
# This plugin ONLY supports Linux
[[inputs.linux_cpu]]
## Path for sysfs filesystem.
## See https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/filesystems/sysfs.txt
## Defaults:
# host_sys = "/sys"
## CPU metrics collected by the plugin.
## Supported options:
## "cpufreq", "thermal"
## Defaults:
# metrics = ["cpufreq"]
Metrics
The following tags are emitted by the plugin under the name linux_cpu
:
Tag |
Description |
cpu |
Identifier of the CPU |
The following fields are emitted by the plugin when selecting cpufreq
:
Metric name (field) |
Description |
Units |
scaling_cur_freq |
Current frequency of the CPU as determined by CPUFreq |
KHz |
scaling_min_freq |
Minimum frequency the governor can scale to |
KHz |
scaling_max_freq |
Maximum frequency the governor can scale to |
KHz |
cpuinfo_cur_freq |
Current frequency of the CPU as determined by the hardware |
KHz |
cpuinfo_min_freq |
Minimum operating frequency of the CPU |
KHz |
cpuinfo_max_freq |
Maximum operating frequency of the CPU |
KHz |
The following fields are emitted by the plugin when selecting thermal
:
Metric name (field) |
Description |
Units |
throttle_count |
Number of thermal throttle events reported by the CPU |
|
throttle_max_time |
Maximum amount of time CPU was in throttled state |
ms |
throtlle_total_time |
Cumulative time during which the CPU was in throttled state |
ms |
