# netdata python.d.plugin configuration for portcheck # # This file is in YaML format. Generally the format is: # # name: value # # There are 2 sections: # - global variables # - one or more JOBS # # JOBS allow you to collect values from multiple sources. # Each source will have its own set of charts. # # JOB parameters have to be indented (using spaces only, example below). # ---------------------------------------------------------------------- # Global Variables # These variables set the defaults for all JOBs, however each JOB # may define its own, overriding the defaults. # update_every sets the default data collection frequency. # If unset, the python.d.plugin default is used. # update_every: 1 # priority controls the order of charts at the netdata dashboard. # Lower numbers move the charts towards the top of the page. # If unset, the default for python.d.plugin is used. # priority: 60000 # chart_cleanup sets the default chart cleanup interval in iterations. # A chart is marked as obsolete if it has not been updated # 'chart_cleanup' iterations in a row. # They will be hidden immediately (not offered to dashboard viewer, # streamed upstream and archived to backends) and deleted one hour # later (configurable from netdata.conf). # -- For this plugin, cleanup MUST be disabled, otherwise we lose latency chart chart_cleanup: 0 # Autodetection and retries do not work for this plugin # ---------------------------------------------------------------------- # JOBS (data collection sources) # # The default JOBS share the same *name*. JOBS with the same name # are mutually exclusive. Only one of them will be allowed running at # any time. This allows autodetection to try several alternatives and # pick the one that works. # # Any number of jobs is supported. # # ------------------------------- # ATTENTION: Any valid configuration will be accepted, even if initial connection fails! # ------------------------------- # # There is intentionally no default config for 'localhost' # job_name: # name: myname # [optional] the JOB's name as it will appear at the # # dashboard (by default is the job_name) # # JOBs sharing a name are mutually exclusive # update_every: 1 # [optional] the JOB's data collection frequency # priority: 60000 # [optional] the JOB's order on the dashboard # retries: 60 # [optional] the JOB's number of restoration attempts # timeout: 1 # [optional] the socket timeout when connecting # host: 'dns or ip' # [required] the remote host address in either IPv4, IPv6 or as DNS name. # port: 22 # [required] the port number to check. Specify an integer, not service name. # You just have been warned about possible portscan blocking. The portcheck plugin is meant for simple use cases. # Currently, the accuracy of the latency is low and should be used as reference only.
