HDDtemp Input Plugin

This plugin reads data from a hddtemp daemon.

As the upstream project is not activly maintained anymore and various distributions (e.g. Debian Bookwork and later) don’t ship packages for hddtemp anymore, the binary might not be available (e.g. in Ubuntu 22.04 or later).

Introduced in: Telegraf v1.0.0 Tags: hardware, system OS support: all

Global configuration options

In addition to the plugin-specific configuration settings, plugins support additional global and plugin configuration settings. These settings are used to modify metrics, tags, and field or create aliases and configure ordering, etc. See the CONFIGURATION.md for more details.
