Pika
Plugin: go.d.plugin Module: pika
Overview
This collector monitors Pika servers.
It collects information and statistics about the server executing the following commands:
This collector is supported on all platforms.
This collector supports collecting metrics from multiple instances of this integration, including remote instances.
Default Behavior
Auto-Detection
This integration doesn’t support auto-detection.
Limits
The default configuration for this integration does not impose any limits on data collection.
Performance Impact
The default configuration for this integration is not expected to impose a significant performance impact on the system.
Setup
Prerequisites
No action required.
Configuration
File
The configuration file name for this integration is go.d/pika.conf.
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 go.d/pika.conf
Options
The following options can be defined globally: update_every, autodetection_retry.
| Name | Description | Default | Required |
|---|---|---|---|
| update_every | Data collection frequency. | 5 | False |
| autodetection_retry | Recheck interval in seconds. Zero means no recheck will be scheduled. | 0 | False |
| address | Pika server address. | redis://@localhost:9221 | True |
| timeout | Dial (establishing new connections), read (socket reads) and write (socket writes) timeout in seconds. | 1 | False |
| username | Username used for authentication. | False | |
| password | Password used for authentication. | False | |
| tls_skip_verify | Server certificate chain and hostname validation policy. Controls whether the client performs this check. | False | False |
| tls_ca | Certificate authority that client use when verifying server certificates. | False | |
| tls_cert | Client tls certificate. | False | |
| tls_key | Client tls key. | False |
Examples
TCP socket
An example configuration.
jobs:
- name: local
address: 'redis://@localhost:9221'
TCP socket with password
An example configuration.
jobs:
- name: local
address: 'redis://:password@127.0.0.1:9221'
Multi-instance
Note: When you define multiple jobs, their names must be unique.
Local and remote instances.
jobs:
- name: local
address: 'redis://:password@127.0.0.1:9221'
- name: remote
address: 'redis://user:password@203.0.113.0:9221'
Metrics
Metrics grouped by scope.
The scope defines the instance that the metric belongs to. An instance is uniquely identified by a set of labels.
Per Pika instance
These metrics refer to the entire monitored application.
This scope has no labels.

| pika.connections | accepted | connections |
| pika.clients | connected | clients |
| pika.memory | used | bytes |
| pika.connected_replicas | connected | replicas |
| pika.commands | processed | commands/s |
| pika.commands_calls | a dimension per command | calls/s |
| pika.database_strings_keys | a dimension per database | keys |
| pika.database_strings_expires_keys | a dimension per database | keys |

Alerts
There are no alerts configured by default for this integration.
Troubleshooting
Debug Mode
To troubleshoot issues with the pika collector, run the go.d.plugin with the debug option enabled. The output
should give you clues as to why the collector isn’t working.
-
Navigate to the
plugins.ddirectory, usually at/usr/libexec/netdata/plugins.d/. If that’s not the case on your system, opennetdata.confand look for thepluginssetting under[directories].cd /usr/libexec/netdata/plugins.d/ -
Switch to the
