metrics_description: |
This collector monitors Varnish metrics about HTTP accelerator global, Backends (VBE) and Storages (SMF, SMA, MSE) statistics.
Note that both, Varnish-Cache (free and open source) and Varnish-Plus (Commercial/Enterprise version), are supported.

It uses the `varnishstat` tool in order to collect the metrics.

In order for the collector to work, you need to add the `netdata` user to the `varnish` user group, so that it can execute the `varnishstat` tool:
```
usermod -aG varnish netdata
```
configuration:

name: python.d/varnish.conf

options:
description: |
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.
