Tengine

Plugin: go.d.plugin Module: tengine

Overview

This collector monitors Tengine servers.

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.

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 Tengine instance

These metrics refer to the entire monitored application.

This scope has no labels.

Metrics:

MetricDimensionsUnit
tengine.bandwidth_totalin, outB/s

tengine.requests_totalprocessedrequests/s
tengine.requests_per_response_code_family_total2xx, 3xx, 4xx, 5xx, otherrequests/s

Alerts

There are no alerts configured by default for this integration.

Setup

Prerequisites

Enable ngx_http_reqstat_module module.

To enable the module, see the [official documentation](ngx_http_reqstat_module](https://tengine.taobao.org/document/http_reqstat.html). The default line format is the only supported format.

Configuration

File

The configuration file name for this integration is go.d/tengine.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/tengine.conf

Options

The following options can be defined globally: update_every, autodetection_retry.

Examples

Basic

An example configuration.

Config
jobs:
- name: local
url: http://127.0.0.1/us

HTTP authentication

Local server with basic HTTP authentication.

Config
jobs:
- name: local
url: http://127.0.0.1/us
username: foo
password: bar

HTTPS with self-signed certificate

Tengine with enabled HTTPS and self-signed certificate.

Config
jobs:
- name: local
url: https://127.0.0.1/us
tls_skip_verify: yes

Multi-instance

Note: When you define multiple jobs, their names must be unique.

Local and remote instances.

Config
jobs:
- name: local
url: http://127.0.0.1/us

- name: remote
url: http://203.0.113.10/us

Troubleshooting

Debug Mode

Important: Debug mode is not supported for data collection jobs created via the UI using the Dyncfg feature.

To troubleshoot issues with the tengine 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.d directory, usually at /usr/libexec/netdata/plugins.d/. If that's not the case on your system, open netdata.conf and look for the plugins setting under [directories].

    cd /usr/libexec/netdata/plugins.d/
  • Switch to the netdata user.

    sudo -u netdata -s
  • Run the go.d.plugin to debug the collector:

    ./go.d.plugin -d -m tengine

Getting Logs

If you're encountering problems with the tengine collector, follow these steps to retrieve logs and identify potential issues:

  • Run the command specific to your system (systemd, non-systemd, or Docker container).
  • Examine the output for any warnings or error messages that might indicate issues. These messages should provide clues about the root cause of the problem.

System with systemd

Use the following command to view logs generated since the last Netdata service restart:

journalctl _SYSTEMD_INVOCATION_ID="$(systemctl show --value --property=InvocationID netdata)" --namespace=netdata --grep tengine

System without systemd

Locate the collector log file, typically at /var/log/netdata/collector.log, and use grep to filter for collector's name:

grep tengine /var/log/netdata/collector.log

Note: This method shows logs from all restarts. Focus on the latest entries for troubleshooting current issues.

Docker Container

If your Netdata runs in a Docker container named "netdata" (replace if different), use this command:

docker logs netdata 2>&1 | grep tengine
