# Fluentd Input Plugin
|
||
|
|
||
|
This plugin gathers internal metrics of a [fluentd][fluentd] instance provided
|
||
|
by fluentd's [monitor agent plugin][monitor_agent]. Data provided
|
||
|
by the `/api/plugin.json` resource, `/api/config.json` is not covered.
|
||
|
|
||
|
> [!IMPORTANT]
|
||
|
> This plugin might produce high-cardinality series as the `plugin_id` value is
|
||
|
> random after each restart of fluentd. You might need to adjust your fluentd
|
||
|
> configuration, in order to reduce series cardinality in case your fluentd
|
||
|
> restarts frequently by adding the `@id` parameter to each plugin.
|
||
|
> See [fluentd's documentation][docs] for details.

## Global configuration options <!-- @/docs/includes/plugin_config.md -->
|
||
|
|
||
|
In addition to the plugin-specific configuration settings, plugins support
|
||
|
additional global and plugin configuration settings. These settings are used to
|
||
|
modify metrics, tags, and field or create aliases and configure ordering, etc.
|
||
|
See the [CONFIGURATION.md][CONFIGURATION.md] for more details.

|

|
|
||
|
## Configuration
|
||
|
|
||
|
```toml @sample.conf
|
||
|
# Read metrics exposed by fluentd in_monitor plugin
|
||
|
[[inputs.fluentd]]
|
||
|
## This plugin reads information exposed by fluentd (using /api/plugins.json endpoint).
|
||
|
##
|
||
|
## Endpoint:
|
||
|
## - only one URI is allowed
|
||
|
## - https is not supported
|
||
|
endpoint = "http://localhost:24220/api/plugins.json"
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Define which plugins have to be excluded (based on "type" field - e.g. monitor_agent)
|
||
|
exclude = [
|
||
|
"monitor_agent",
|
||
|
"dummy",
|
||
|
]
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|

|
||
|
- buffer_queue_length (float, unit)
|
||
|
- buffer_total_queued_size (float, unit)
|
||
|
- rollback_count (float, unit)
|
||
|
- flush_time_count (float, unit)
|
||
|
- slow_flush_count (float, unit)
|
||
|
- emit_count (float, unit)
|
||
|

|
||
|
- buffer_queue_byte_size (float, unit)
|
||
|
- buffer_stage_byte_size (float, unit)
|
||
|
- buffer_available_buffer_space_ratios (float, unit)
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Tags
|
||
|
|
||
|
- All measurements have the following tags:
|
||
|
- plugin_id (unique plugin id)
|
||
|
- plugin_type (type of the plugin e.g. s3)
|
||
|
- plugin_category (plugin category e.g. output)
|
||
|
|
||
|
