Hi all,
I'm having some trouble getting a load threshold to fire and I'm hoping
someone can offer some advice please.
Currently, my config looks something like this:
<Plugin "threshold">
<Type "load">
Instance "shortterm"
FailureMax 0.00
FailureMin 0.00
WarningMin 0.00
WarningMax 0.00
Hits 1
</Type>
<Type "cpu">
Instance "user"
WarningMax 85
Hits 1
</Type>
</Plugin>
<Plugin exec>
NotificationExec "user:user" "/etc/collectd/plugins/plugin.sh"
</Plugin>
The notifier just uses `logger` to send stdin to syslog, and I'm just
grepping syslog for "logger" in testing. I get the CPU notification as
expected, but I cannot get the load one to fire. Load is shown in `top`
and graphite as being roughly around 1.0 (maxing out both CPUs) and I've
varied the Failure* clauses accordingly with no success. I've also tried
several configs verbatim from the internet and example configs without
success.
I've tried the following variations based on internet research and
random guessing:
* Replaced <Plugin "threshold"></Plugin> with <Threshold></Threshold>
(syntax error)
* Wrapped <Type "load"></Type> in <Plugin "load"></Plugin>
* Replaced <Type "load"></Type> with <Plugin "load"></Plugin>
* Changed/removed all Warning* and Failure* clauses, and the "Hits" clause
* Used "DataSource" instead of "Instance"
* Tried "longterm" and "midterm" for DataSource/Instance
If anyone could provide any suggestions on where I'm going wrong, or
could provide the correct syntax for v5.1.0 on Ubuntu 12.04, I'd really
appreciate the help.
Thanks very much,
Gary.
