# Disk Input Plugin
The disk input plugin gathers metrics about disk usage.
Note that `used_percent` is calculated by doing `used / (used + free)`, _not_
`used / total`, which is how the unix `df` command does it. See
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Df_(Unix) for more details.
### Configuration:
```toml
# Read metrics about disk usage by mount point
[[inputs.disk]]
## By default stats will be gathered for all mount points.
## Set mount_points will restrict the stats to only the specified mount points.
# mount_points = ["/"]
## Ignore mount points by filesystem type.
ignore_fs = ["tmpfs", "devtmpfs", "devfs"]
```
#### 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. If desired, you can
also set the `HOST_MOUNT_PREFIX` environment variable to the prefix containing
the `/proc` directory, when present this variable is stripped from the
reported `path` tag.
```
docker run -v /:/hostfs:ro -e HOST_MOUNT_PREFIX=/hostfs -e HOST_PROC=/hostfs/proc telegraf
```
### Metrics:
- disk
- tags:
- fstype (filesystem type)
- device (device file)
- path (mount point path)
- mode (whether the mount is rw or ro)
- fields:
- free (integer, bytes)
- total (integer, bytes)
- used (integer, bytes)
- used_percent (float, percent)
- inodes_free (integer, files)
- inodes_total (integer, files)
- inodes_used (integer, files)
### Example Output:
```
