Telegraf plugin: procstat

Description

The procstat plugin can be used to monitor system resource usage by an individual process using their /proc data.

Processes can be specified either by pid file, by executable name, by command line pattern matching, by username, by systemd unit name, or by cgroup name/path (in this order or priority). Procstat plugin will use pgrep when executable name is provided to obtain the pid. Procstat plugin will transmit IO, memory, cpu, file descriptor related measurements for every process specified. A prefix can be set to isolate individual process specific measurements.

The plugin will tag processes according to how they are specified in the configuration. If a pid file is used, a "pidfile" tag will be generated. On the other hand, if an executable is used an "exe" tag will be generated. Possible tag names:

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

Additionally the plugin will tag processes by their PID (pid_tag = true in the config) and their process name:

  • pid
  • process_name

Windows

On windows we only support exe and pattern. Both of these are implemented using WMI queries. exe is on the Name field and pattern is on the CommandLine field.

Windows Support:

  • exe (WMI Name)
  • pattern (WMI CommandLine)

this allows you to do fuzzy matching but only what is supported by WMI query patterns.

Example:

Windows fuzzy matching:

  exe = "%influx%"
  process_name="influxd"
  prefix = "influxd"

Linux

[[inputs.procstat]]
  exe = "influxd"
  prefix = "influxd"

[[inputs.procstat]]
  pid_file = "/var/run/lxc/dnsmasq.pid"

The above configuration would result in output like:
