Apache Mesos Input Plugin

This plugin gathers metrics from Apache Mesos instances. For more information, please check the Mesos Observability Metrics page.

Introduced in: Telegraf v0.10.3 Tags: containers 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.

Configuration

# Telegraf plugin for gathering metrics from N Mesos masters
[[inputs.mesos]]
  ## Timeout, in ms.
  timeout = 100

  ## A list of Mesos masters.
  masters = ["http://localhost:5050"]

  ## Master metrics groups to be collected, by default, all enabled.
  master_collections = [
    "resources",
    "master",
    "system",
    "agents",
    "frameworks",
    "framework_offers",
    "tasks",
    "messages",
    "evqueue",
    "registrar",
    "allocator",
  ]

  ## A list of Mesos slaves, default is []
  # slaves = []

  ## Slave metrics groups to be collected, by default, all enabled.
  # slave_collections = [
  #   "resources",
  #   "agent",
  #   "system",
  #   "executors",
  #   "tasks",
  #   "messages",
  # ]

  ## Optional TLS Config
  # tls_ca = "/etc/telegraf/ca.pem"
  # tls_cert = "/etc/telegraf/cert.pem"
  # tls_key = "/etc/telegraf/key.pem"
  ## Use TLS but skip chain & host verification
  # insecure_skip_verify = false

By default this plugin is not configured to gather metrics from mesos. Since a mesos cluster can be deployed in numerous ways it does not provide any default values. User needs to specify master/slave nodes this plugin will gather metrics from.

    • role (master/slave)

  • All master measurements have the extra tags:

    • state (leader/follower)
