# win_perf_counters 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_perf_counters.object]]`.
|
||
|
|
This must follow before other plugins configuration,
|
||
|
|
beneath the main win_perf_counters entry, `[[inputs.win_perf_counters]]`.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
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_perf_counters.
|
||
|
|
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.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
