Hardware Sensors

Configuration¶

Computer chip temperature data acquisition using the lm-sensors command (currently only support Linux operating system).

Preconditions¶

• Run the install command apt install lm-sensors -y
• Run the scan command sudo sensors-detect enter Yes for each question
• After running the scan, you will see 'service kmod start' to load the scanned sensors, which may vary depending on your operating system.

Collector Configuration¶

[[inputs.sensors]]
  ## Command path of 'sensors' usually is /usr/bin/sensors
  # path = "/usr/bin/sensors"

  ## Gathering interval
  # interval = "10s"

  ## Command timeout
  # timeout = "3s"

  ## Customer tags, if set will be seen with every metric.
  [inputs.sensors.tags]
    # "key1" = "value1"
    # "key2" = "value2"

The collector can now be turned on by ConfigMap Injection Collector Configuration.

Metric¶

For all of the following data collections, a global tag named host is appended by default (the tag value is the host name of the DataKit), or other tags can be specified in the configuration by [inputs.sensors.tags]:

[inputs.sensors.tags]
  # some_tag = "some_value"
  # more_tag = "some_other_value"
  # ...
