NAME

Plugin_procnetdev - man page for the LDMS procnetdev plugin

SYNOPSIS

Within ldmsd_controller or a configuration file:

config name=procnetdev [ <attr> = <value> ]

DESCRIPTION

With LDMS (Lightweight Distributed Metric Service), plugins for the ldmsd (ldms daemon) are configured via ldmsd_controller or a configuration file. The procnetdev plugin provides network info from /proc/net/dev.

CONFIGURATION ATTRIBUTE SYNTAX

The procnetdev plugin uses the sampler_base base class. This man page covers only the configuration attributes, or those with default values, specific to the this plugin; see ldms_sampler_base.man for the attributes of the base class.

config

name=<plugin_name> ifaces=<ifs>

configuration line

name=<plugin_name>

This MUST be procnetdev.

ifaces=<ifs>

CSV list of ifaces. Order matters. Non-existent ifaces will be included and default to 0-value data.

schema=<schema>

Optional schema name. It is intended that the same sampler on different nodes with different metrics or ifaces have a different schema. If not specified, will default to `procnetdev`.

BUGS

Interfaces list is limited to 20.
