Plugin: freebsd.plugin Module: kern.cp_time
Total CPU utilization
The plugin calls sysctl
function to collect necessary data.
This collector is supported on all platforms.
This collector supports collecting metrics from multiple instances of this integration, including remote instances.
This integration doesn’t support auto-detection.
The default configuration for this integration does not impose any limits on data collection.
The default configuration for this integration is not expected to impose a significant performance impact on the system.
No action required.
The configuration file name for this integration is netdata.conf
.
The file format is a modified INI syntax. The general structure is:
[section1]
option1 = some value
option2 = some other value
[section2]
option3 = some third value
You can edit the configuration file using the edit-config
script from the
Netdata config directory.
cd /etc/netdata 2>/dev/null || cd /opt/netdata/etc/netdata
sudo ./edit-config netdata.conf
The netdata main configuration file.
Name | Description | Default | Required |
---|---|---|---|
kern.cp_time | Enable or disable Total CPU usage. | yes | no |
There are no configuration examples.
Metrics grouped by scope.
The scope defines the instance that the metric belongs to. An instance is uniquely identified by a set of labels.
These metrics show CPU usage statistics.
This scope has no labels.
Metrics:
Metric | Dimensions | Unit |
---|---|---|
system.cpu | nice, system, user, interrupt, idle | percentage |
This scope has no labels.
Metrics:
Metric | Dimensions | Unit |
---|---|---|
cpu.cpu | nice, system, user, interrupt, idle | percentage |
The following alerts are available:
Alert name | On metric | Description |
---|---|---|
10min_cpu_usage | system.cpu | average CPU utilization over the last 10 minutes (excluding iowait, nice and steal) |
10min_cpu_iowait | system.cpu | average CPU iowait time over the last 10 minutes |
20min_steal_cpu | system.cpu | average CPU steal time over the last 20 minutes |
10min_cpu_usage | system.cpu | average CPU utilization over the last 10 minutes (excluding nice) |
