Hi, I want to use telegraf to monitoring two node process, currently I'm using the procstat input plugin with a pattern.
But telegraf wrote more data than I expected, for example when i do a query the "process_name" shows me "node" (as i expected), but also somethings like "postgres", "sshd", "lsb_release", "git", "pgrep", etc. I know the plugin actually use "pgrep -f 'pattern'", so maybe it's not a bug of telegraf. I mean, maybe in a moment those process have a command line that include my pattern. I'm thinking how I can fix it and i tried use the "exec" argument, but I lost the pattern (so I can't distict my two node process) and I met with this bug: https://github.com/influxdata/telegraf/issues/1668 I thinks those arguments are mutually exclusive. So I don't know what to do, if I can use these two arguments (exec and pattern), I won't have any problem. I want to reduce the data that telegraf is writing on influxdb, make it to only write about my node process but I need to diffentiate them. What do you think?.
