## Telegraf Plugin: MEM
# Mem Input Plugin
#### Description
The mem plugin collects system memory metrics.
The mem plugin collects memory metrics, defined as follows. For a more complete
explanation of the difference between `used` and `actual_used` RAM, see
[Linux ate my ram](http://www.linuxatemyram.com/).
For a more complete explanation of the difference between *used* and
*actual_used* RAM, see [Linux ate my ram](http://www.linuxatemyram.com/).
- **total**: total physical memory available
- **available**: the actual amount of available memory that can be given instantly
to processes that request more memory in bytes; In linux kernel 3.14+, this
is available natively in /proc/meminfo. In other platforms, this is calculated by
summing different memory values depending on the platform
(e.g. free + buffers + cached on Linux).
It is supposed to be used to monitor actual memory usage in a cross platform fashion.
- **available_percent**: Percent of memory available, `available / total * 100`
- **used**: memory used, calculated differently depending on the platform and
designed for informational purposes only.
- **free**: memory not being used at all (zeroed) that is readily available; note
that this doesn't reflect the actual memory available (use 'available' instead).
- **used_percent**: the percentage usage calculated as `used / total * 100`
### Configuration:
```toml
# Read metrics about memory usage
[[inputs.mem]]
# no configuration
```
## Measurements:
#### Raw Memory measurements:
### Metrics:
Meta:
- units: bytes
- tags: `nil`
- mem
- fields:
- active (int)
- available (int)
- buffered (int)
- cached (int)
- free (int)
- inactive (int)
- slab (int)
- total (int)
- used (int)
- available_percent (float)
- used_percent (float)
Measurement names:
- mem_total
- mem_available
- mem_used
- mem_free
#### Derived usage percentages:
Meta:
- units: percent (out of 100)
- tags: `nil`
Measurement names:
- mem_used_percent
- mem_available_percent
### Example Output:
```
mem cached=7809495040i,inactive=6348988416i,total=20855394304i,available=11378946048i,buffered=927199232i,active=11292905472i,slab=1351340032i,used_percent=45.43883523785713,available_percent=54.56116476214287,used=9476448256i,free=1715331072i 1511894782000000000
