Systemd units state monitoring with Netdata
Systemd is a suite of basic building blocks for a Linux system.
This module monitors Systemd units state.
Requirements
- Works only on Linux systems.
- Disabled by default. Should be explicitly enabled in the
go.d.conf:
# go.d.conf
modules:
systemdunits: yes
Metrics
The unit types and states description can be found in the official documentation.
All metrics have "systemd." prefix.
| Metric | Scope | Dimensions | Units |
|---|---|---|---|
| service_unit_state | unit | active, inactive, activating, deactivating, failed | state |
| socket_unit_state | unit | active, inactive, activating, deactivating, failed | state |
| target_unit_state | unit | active, inactive, activating, deactivating, failed | state |
| path_unit_state | unit | active, inactive, activating, deactivating, failed | state |
| device_unit_state | unit | active, inactive, activating, deactivating, failed | state |
| mount_unit_state | unit | active, inactive, activating, deactivating, failed | state |
| automount_unit_state | unit | active, inactive, activating, deactivating, failed | state |
| swap_unit_state | unit | active, inactive, activating, deactivating, failed | state |
| timer_unit_state | unit | active, inactive, activating, deactivating, failed | state |
| scope_unit_state | unit | active, inactive, activating, deactivating, failed | state |
| slice_unit_state | unit | active, inactive, activating, deactivating, failed | state |
Configuration
Edit the go.d/systemdunits.conf configuration file using edit-config from the
Netdata config directory, which is typically at /etc/netdata.
cd /etc/netdata # Replace this path with your Netdata config directory
sudo ./edit-config go.d/systemdunits.conf
Needs only include option. Syntax is the shell file name pattern.
Here are some examples:
jobs:
- name: my-specific-service-unit
include:
- 'my-specific.service'
- name: service-units
include:
- '*.service'
- name: socket-units
include:
- '*.socket'
For all available options, see the Systemdunits collector's configuration file.
Troubleshooting
To troubleshoot issues with the systemdunits 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
netdatauser.sudo -u netdata -s -
Run the
go.d.pluginto debug the collector:./go.d.plugin -d -m systemdunits
