Procstat Input Plugin

The procstat plugin can be used to monitor the system resource usage of one or more processes.

Processes can be selected for monitoring using one of several methods:

  • pidfile
  • exe
  • pattern
  • user
  • systemd_unit
  • cgroup

Configuration:

# Monitor process cpu and memory usage
[[inputs.procstat]]
  ## PID file to monitor process
  pid_file = "/var/run/nginx.pid"
  ## executable name (ie, pgrep <exe>)
  # exe = "nginx"
  ## pattern as argument for pgrep (ie, pgrep -f <pattern>)
  # pattern = "nginx"
  ## user as argument for pgrep (ie, pgrep -u <user>)
  # user = "nginx"
  ## Systemd unit name
  # systemd_unit = "nginx.service"
  ## CGroup name or path
  # cgroup = "systemd/system.slice/nginx.service"

  ## override for process_name
  ## This is optional; default is sourced from /proc/<pid>/status
  # process_name = "bar"

  ## Field name prefix
  # prefix = ""

  ## Add PID as a tag instead of a field; useful to differentiate between
  ## processes whose tags are otherwise the same.  Can create a large number
  ## of series, use judiciously.
  # pid_tag = false

  ## Method to use when finding process IDs.  Can be one of 'pgrep', or
  ## 'native'.  The pgrep finder calls the pgrep executable in the PATH while
  ## the native finder performs the search directly in a manor dependent on the
  ## platform.  Default is 'pgrep'
  # pid_finder = "pgrep"

Windows support

Preliminary support for Windows has been added, however you may prefer using the win_perf_counters input plugin as a more mature alternative.

When using the pid_finder = "native" in Windows, the pattern lookup method is implemented as a WMI query. The pattern allows fuzzy matching using only WMI query patterns:

[[inputs.procstat]]
  pattern = "%influx%"
  pid_finder = "native"

Metrics:

  • procstat
    • tags:
      • pid (when pid_tag is true)
      • process_name

      • pattern (when defined)
      • user (when selected)
      • systemd_unit (when defined)
      • cgroup (when defined)
