| # win_perfcounters readme | ||
|
|
||
| The way this plugin works is that on load of Telegraf, the plugin will be handed configuration from Telegraf. This configuration is parsed and then tested for validity such as if the Object, Instance and Counter existing. If it does not match at startup, it will not be fetched. Exceptions to this are in cases where you query for all instances "*". By default the plugin does not return _Total when it is querying for all (*) as this is redundant. | ||
|
|
||
| ## Basics | ||
|
|
||
| The examples contained in this file have been found on the internet as counters used when performance monitoring Active Directory and IIS in perticular. There are a lot other good objects to monitor, if you know what to look for. This file is likely to be updated in the future with more examples for useful configurations for separate scenarios. | ||
|
|
||
| ### Entry | ||
| A new configuration entry consists of the TOML header to start with, `[[inputs.win_perfcounters.object]]`. This must follow before other plugins configuration, beneath the main win_perfcounters entry, `[[inputs.win_perfcounters]]`. | ||
|
|
||
| Following this is 3 required key/value pairs and the three optional parameters and their usage. | ||
|
|
||
| ### ObjectName | ||
| **Required** | ||
|
|
||
| ObjectName is the Object to query for, like Processor, DirectoryServices, LogicalDisk or similar. | ||
|
|
||
| Example: `ObjectName = "LogicalDisk"` | ||
|
|
||
| ### Instances | ||
| **Required** | ||
|
|
||
| Instances (this is an array) is the instances of a counter you would like returned, it can be one or more values. | ||
|
|
||
| Example, `Instances = ["C:","D:","E:"]` will return only for the instances C:, D: and E: where relevant. To get all instnaces of a Counter, use ["*"] only. By default any results containing _Total are stripped, unless this is specified as the wanted instance. Alternatively see the option IncludeTotal below. | ||
|
|
||
| Some Objects does not have instances to select from at all, here only one option is valid if you want data back, and that is to specify `Instances = ["------"]`. | ||
|
|
||
| ### Counters | ||
| **Required** | ||
|
|
||
| Counters (this is an array) is the counters of the ObjectName you would like returned, it can also be one or more values. | ||
|
|
||
| Example: `Counters = ["% Idle Time", "% Disk Read Time", "% Disk Write Time"]` | ||
| This must be specified for every counter you want the results of, it is not possible to ask for all counters in the ObjectName. | ||
|
|
||
| ### Measurement | ||
| *Optional* | ||
|
|
||
| This key is optional, if it is not set it will be win_perfcounters. In InfluxDB this is the key by which the returned data is stored underneath, so for ordering your data in a good manner, this is a good key to set with where you want your IIS and Disk results stored, separate from Processor results. | ||
|
|
||
| Example: `Measurement = "win_disk" | ||
|
|
||
| ### IncludeTotal | ||
| *Optional* | ||
|
|
||
| This key is optional, it is a simple bool. If it is not set to true or included it is treated as false. | ||
| This key only has an effect if Instances is set to "*" and you would also like all instances containg _Total returned, like "_Total", "0,_Total" and so on where applicable (Processor Information is one example). | ||
|
|
||
| ### WarnOnMissing | ||
| *Optional* | ||
|
|
||
| This key is optional, it is a simple bool. If it is not set to true or included it is treated as false. | ||
| This only has an effect on the first execution of the plugin, it will print out any ObjectName/Instance/Counter combinations asked for that does not match. Useful when debugging new configurations. | ||
|
|
||
| ### FailOnMissing | ||
| *Internal* | ||
|
|
||
| This key should not be used, it is for testing purposes only. It is a simple bool, if it is not set to true or included this is treaded as false. If this is set to true, the plugin will abort and end prematurely if any of the combinations of ObjectName/Instances/Counters are invalid. | ||
|
|
||
