# netdata python.d.plugin configuration for nsd # # 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. # nsd-control is slow, so once every 30 seconds # update_every: 30 # 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, nsd also supports the following: # # command: 'nsd-control stats_noreset' # the command to run # # ---------------------------------------------------------------------- # IMPORTANT Information # # Netdata must have permissions to run `nsd-control stats_noreset` command # # - Example-1 (use "sudo") # 1. sudoers (e.g. visudo -f /etc/sudoers.d/netdata) # Defaults:netdata !requiretty # netdata ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /usr/sbin/nsd-control stats_noreset # 2. etc/netdata/python.d/nsd.conf # local: # update_every: 30 # command: 'sudo /usr/sbin/nsd-control stats_noreset' # # - Example-2 (add "netdata" user to "nsd" group) # usermod -aG nsd netdata # # ---------------------------------------------------------------------- # AUTO-DETECTION JOBS local: update_every: 30 command: 'nsd-control stats_noreset'
