DiskIO Input Plugin
The diskio input plugin gathers metrics about disk traffic and timing.
Configuration:
# Read metrics about disk IO by device
[[inputs.diskio]]
## By default, telegraf will gather stats for all devices including
## disk partitions.
## Setting devices will restrict the stats to the specified devices.
# devices = ["sda", "sdb"]
## Uncomment the following line if you need disk serial numbers.
# skip_serial_number = false
#
## On systems which support it, device metadata can be added in the form of
## tags.
## Currently only Linux is supported via udev properties. You can view
## available properties for a device by running:
## 'udevadm info -q property -n /dev/sda'
## Note: Most, but not all, udev properties can be accessed this way. Properties
## that are currently inaccessible include DEVTYPE, DEVNAME, and DEVPATH.
# device_tags = ["ID_FS_TYPE", "ID_FS_USAGE"]
#
## Using the same metadata source as device_tags, you can also customize the
## name of the device via templates.
## The 'name_templates' parameter is a list of templates to try and apply to
## the device. The template may contain variables in the form of '$PROPERTY' or
## '${PROPERTY}'. The first template which does not contain any variables not
## present for the device is used as the device name tag.
## The typical use case is for LVM volumes, to get the VG/LV name instead of
## the near-meaningless DM-0 name.
# name_templates = ["$ID_FS_LABEL","$DM_VG_NAME/$DM_LV_NAME"]
Docker container
To monitor the Docker engine host from within a container you will need to
mount the host's filesystem into the container and set the HOST_PROC
environment variable to the location of the /proc filesystem. Additionally,
it is required to use privileged mode to provide access to /dev.
If you are using the device_tags or name_templates options, you will need
to bind mount /run/udev into the container.
docker run --privileged -v /:/hostfs:ro -v /run/udev:/run/udev:ro -e HOST_PROC=/hostfs/proc telegraf
Metrics:
- diskio
- tags:
- name (device name)
- serial (device serial number)
- fields:
- reads (integer, counter)
- writes (integer, counter)
- read_bytes (integer, counter, bytes)
- write_bytes (integer, counter, bytes)
- read_time (integer, counter, milliseconds)
- write_time (integer, counter, milliseconds)
- io_time (integer, counter, milliseconds)
- weighted_io_time (integer, counter, milliseconds)
- iops_in_progress (integer, gauge)
- tags:
On linux these values correspond to the values in
/proc/diskstats
and
/sys/block/<dev>/stat.
reads & writes:
These values increment when an I/O request completes.
read_bytes & write_bytes:
These values count the number of bytes read from or written to this block device.
read_time & write_time:
These values count the number of milliseconds that I/O requests have waited on this block device. If there are multiple I/O requests waiting, these values will increase at a rate greater than 1000/second; for example, if 60 read requests wait for an average of 30 ms, the read_time field will increase by 60*30 = 1800.
io_time:
This value counts the number of milliseconds during which the device has had I/O requests queued.
weighted_io_time:
This value counts the number of milliseconds that I/O requests have waited
on this block device. If there are multiple I/O requests waiting, this
value will increase as the product of the number of milliseconds times the
number of requests waiting (see read_time above for an example).
iops_in_progress:
This value counts the number of I/O requests that have been issued to the device driver but have not yet completed. It does not include I/O requests that are in the queue but not yet issued to the device driver.
Sample Queries:
Calculate percent IO utilization per disk and host:
SELECT non_negative_derivative(last("io_time"),1ms) FROM "diskio" WHERE time > now() - 30m GROUP BY "host","name",time(60s)
Calculate average queue depth:
iops_in_progress will give you an instantaneous value. This will give you the average between polling intervals.
SELECT non_negative_derivative(last("weighted_io_time",1ms)) from "diskio" WHERE time > now() - 30m GROUP BY "host","name",time(60s)
