Temperature Input Plugin

The temp input plugin gather metrics on system temperature. This plugin is meant to be multi platform and uses platform specific collection methods.

Currently supports Linux and Windows.

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

# Read metrics about temperature
[[inputs.temp]]
  ## Desired output format (Linux only)
  ## Available values are
  ##   v1 -- use pre-v1.22.4 sensor naming, e.g. coretemp_core0_input
  ##   v2 -- use v1.22.4+ sensor naming, e.g. coretemp_core_0_input
  # metric_format = "v2"

  ## Add device tag to distinguish devices with the same name (Linux only)
  # add_device_tag = false

Metrics

  • temp
    • tags:
      • sensor
    • fields:
      • temp (float, celcius)

Troubleshooting

On Windows, the plugin uses a WMI call that is can be replicated with the following command:

wmic /namespace:\\root\wmi PATH MSAcpi_ThermalZoneTemperature

If the result is "Not Supported" you may be running in a virtualized environment and not a physical machine. Additionally, if you still get this result your motherboard or system may not support querying these values. Finally, you may be required to run as admin to get the values.

Example Output

temp,sensor=coretemp_physicalid0_crit temp=100 1531298763000000000
temp,sensor=coretemp_physicalid0_critalarm temp=0 1531298763000000000
temp,sensor=coretemp_physicalid0_input temp=100 1531298763000000000
temp,sensor=coretemp_physicalid0_max temp=100 1531298763000000000
