[influxdb] sysstat error

[Willem D'Haese]

Hello,

When I try to use sysstat as input in telegraf.conf I'm getting errors and
no results. This is my inpit:

[[inputs.sysstat]]
sadc_path = "/usr/lib64/sa/sadc"
activities = ["DISK"]
group = true
[inputs.sysstat.options]
-d = "disk"


And thse are the errors I'm seeing:

This is a CentOS 6 system. When I test the config I do get a result, but
once I start the service or run telegraf it fails somehow.

Mark,

Thank you, setting the interval to 2 for the sysstat input helped indeed.

Hi Willeh, how change the interval? I see the code and see what interval is hardcoding in the code the https://github.com/influxdata/telegraf/tree/master/plugins/inputs/sysstat
