Overview

This plugin provides native load instrumentation for monitoring and metrics collection, including load health and total or per-core metrics.

Files

  • bin/check-load.rb
  • bin/metrics-load.rb

check-load Takes the loadavg and divides by the number of cores.

metrics-load Uses uptime to collect load metrics. The number of CPUs is determined by reading /proc/cpuinfo, which makes the feature Linux-specific.

Usage examples

Help

check-load.rb

Usage: check-load.rb (options)
    -c, --crit L1,L5,L15             Load CRITICAL threshold, 1/5/15 min average
    -w, --warn L1,L5,L15             Load WARNING threshold, 1/5/15 min average  

metrics-load.rb

Usage: metrics-load.rb (options)
        --scheme SCHEME              Metric naming scheme, text to prepend to .$parent.$child

Configuration

Sensu Go

Asset registration

Assets are the best way to make use of this plugin. If you're not using an asset, please consider doing so! If you're using sensuctl 5.13 or later, you can use the following command to add the asset:

sensuctl asset add sensu-plugins/sensu-plugins-load-checks

If you're using an earlier version of sensuctl, you can download the asset definition from this project's Bonsai asset index page.
