+# netdata python.d.plugin configuration for openvpn status log
+#
+# This file is in YaML format. Generally the format is:
+#
+# name: value
+#
+# There are 2 sections:
+#  - global variables
+#  - one or more JOBS
+#
+# JOBS allow you to collect values from multiple sources.
+# Each source will have its own set of charts.
+#
+# JOB parameters have to be indented (using spaces only, example below).
+
+# ----------------------------------------------------------------------
+# Global Variables
+# These variables set the defaults for all JOBs, however each JOB
+# may define its own, overriding the defaults.
+
+# update_every sets the default data collection frequency.
+# If unset, the python.d.plugin default is used.
+# update_every: 1
+
+# priority controls the order of charts at the netdata dashboard.
+# Lower numbers move the charts towards the top of the page.
+# If unset, the default for python.d.plugin is used.
+# priority: 60000
+
+# retries sets the number of retries to be made in case of failures.
+# If unset, the default for python.d.plugin is used.
+# Attempts to restore the service are made once every update_every
+# and only if the module has collected values in the past.
+# retries: 5
+
+# ----------------------------------------------------------------------
+# JOBS (data collection sources)
+#
+# The default JOBS share the same *name*. JOBS with the same name
+# are mutually exclusive. Only one of them will be allowed running at
+# any time. This allows autodetection to try several alternatives and
+# pick the one that works.
+#
+# Any number of jobs is supported.
+#
+# All python.d.plugin JOBS (for all its modules) support a set of
+# predefined parameters. These are:
+#
+# job_name:
+#     name: myname     # the JOB's name as it will appear at the
+#                      # dashboard (by default is the job_name)
+#                      # JOBs sharing a name are mutually exclusive
+#     update_every: 1  # the JOB's data collection frequency
+#     priority: 60000  # the JOB's order on the dashboard
+#     retries: 5       # the JOB's number of restoration attempts
+#
+# Additionally to the above, openvpn status log also supports the following:
+#
+#     log_path: 'PATH'     # the path to openvpn status log file
+#
+# ----------------------------------------------------------------------
+# AUTO-DETECTION JOBS
+# only one of them will run (they have the same name)
+#
+# IMPORTANT information
+#
+# 1. If you are running multiple OpenVPN instances out of the same directory, MAKE SURE TO EDIT DIRECTIVES which create output files
+# so that multiple instances do not overwrite each other's output files.
+# 2. Make sure NETDATA USER CAN READ openvpn-status.log
+#
+#     * cd into directory with openvpn-status.log and run the following commands as root 
+#     * #chown :netdata openvpn-status.log && chmod 640 openvpn-status.log
+#     * To check permission and group membership run
+#     * #ls -l openvpn-status.log
+#     -rw-r----- 1 root netdata 359 dec 21 21:22 openvpn-status.log
+#
+# 3. Update_every interval MUST MATCH interval on which OpenVPN writes operational status to log file.
+# If its not true traffic chart WILL DISPLAY WRONG values
+#
+# Default OpenVPN update interval is 10 second on Debian 8
+# # ps -C openvpn -o command=
+#       /usr/sbin/openvpn --daemon ovpn-server --status /run/openvpn/server.status 10 --cd /etc/openvpn --config /etc/openvpn/server.conf
+# 
+#
+#default:
+# log_path: '/var/log/openvpn-status.log'
