PingCollector
Collect icmp round trip times Only valid for ipv4 hosts currently
Dependencies
- ping
Configuration
Configuration is done by:
Create a file named: PingCollector.conf in the collectors_config_path
- enabled = true
- interval = 60
- target_1 = example.org
- target_fw = 192.168.0.1
- target_localhost = localhost
Test your configuration using the following command:
diamond-setup --print -C PingCollector
You should get a response back that indicates 'enabled': True and see entries for your targets in pairs like:
'target_1': 'example.org'
The graphite nodes pushed are derived from the pinged hostnames by replacing all dots with underscores, i.e. 'www.example.org' becomes 'www_example_org'.
