Overview

This collector monitors Supervisor instances.

It can collect metrics from:

Used methods:

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.

Setup

Prerequisites

No action required.

Configuration

File

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

Options

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

Name Description Default Required
update_every Data collection frequency. 1 False
autodetection_retry Recheck interval in seconds. Zero means no recheck will be scheduled. 0 False
url Server URL. http://127.0.0.1:9001/RPC2 True
timeout System bus requests timeout. 1 False

Examples

HTTP

Collect metrics via HTTP.

jobs:
  - name: local
    url: 'http://127.0.0.1:9001/RPC2'

Socket

Collect metrics via Unix socket.

- name: local
  url: 'unix:///run/supervisor.sock'

Multi-instance

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

Collect metrics from local and remote instances.

jobs:
  - name: local
    url: 'http://127.0.0.1:9001/RPC2'

  - name: remote
    url: 'http://192.0.2.1:9001/RPC2'

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 Supervisor instance

These metrics refer to the entire monitored application.

This scope has no labels.

Metrics:

Metric Dimensions Unit
supervisord.summary_processes running, non-running processes

Per process group

These metrics refer to the process group.

This scope has no labels.

Metrics:

Metric Dimensions Unit
supervisord.processes running, non-running processes
supervisord.process_state_code a dimension per process code
supervisord.process_exit_status a dimension per process exit status
supervisord.process_uptime a dimension per process seconds
supervisord.process_downtime a dimension per process seconds

Alerts

There are no alerts configured by default for this integration.

Troubleshooting

Debug Mode

To troubleshoot issues with the supervisord 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 supervisord
