There are 2 sections:
* Global variables
* One or more JOBS that can define multiple different instances to monitor.
The following options can be defined globally: priority, penalty, autodetection_retry, update_every, but can also be defined per JOB to override the global values.
Additionally, the following collapsed table contains all the options that can be configured inside a JOB definition.
Every configuration JOB starts with a `job_name` value which will appear in the dashboard, unless a `name` parameter is specified.

When `lm-sensors` doesn't work on your device (e.g. for RPi temperatures),
use [the legacy bash collector](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/collectors/charts.d.plugin/sensors/README.md)
- name: ACPI ring buffer errors are printed
description: |
There have been reports from users that on certain servers, ACPI ring buffer errors are printed by the kernel (`dmesg`)
when ACPI sensors are being accessed. We are tracking such cases in issue [#827](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/issues/827).
Please join this discussion for help.
