Graphite Monitor Reporter Plugin
The Graphite Monitor Reporter Plugin contains information needed to push server monitoring metrics into a Graphite server.
The Graphite server host/port must be configured as well as the metric name prefix (e.g. "opendj.example.com"). Zero or more white or black list regexp based metric filters can be configured as well as the reporting interval.
Parent
The Graphite Monitor Reporter Plugin object inherits from Plugin.

Synopsis |
Zero or more regular expressions identifying metrics that should not be published. The metric name prefix must not be included in the filter. Exclusion patterns take precedence over inclusion patterns. |
Default value |
None |
Allowed values |
Any valid regular expression pattern which is supported by the java.util.regex.Pattern class (see https://docs.oracle.com/en/java/javase/17/docs/api/java.base/java/util/regex/Pattern.html for documentation about this class for Java 17). |

graphite-server
Synopsis |
The Graphite server address. |
Description |
When using an IPv6 address as the hostname, put brackets around the address as in "[IPv6Address]:port". |
Default value |
None |
Allowed values |
A host name or an IP address followed by a ":" and a port number. Port number must be greater than 1 and less than 65535. |

metric-name-prefix
Synopsis |
The prefix that will be added to all metric names reported to Graphite. |
Description |
The prefix helps distinguish between metrics arriving from different instances of the same application, thereby allowing monitoring applications to monitor the entire service as well as drill-down to specific application instances. Consider including an identifier for the data center, the application type, and a unique identifier for the application instance in the prefix using a dot-separated structure. For example, 'ny.opendj.ds1' identifies the OpenDJ instance "ds1" in the New York data center. |
Default value |
ds |
Allowed values |
A string. |

reporting-interval
Synopsis |
The interval between successive publications of server metrics to Graphite. |
Description |
An interval in the range 10-60 seconds is recommended. Reducing the interval increases the accuracy of the metrics at the cost of network utilization. |
Default value |
10s |
Allowed values |
Uses duration syntax. Lower limit: 1 seconds. |

Synopsis |
Indicates whether the plug-in should be invoked for internal operations. |
Description |
Any plug-in that can be invoked for internal operations must ensure that it does not create any new internal operations that can cause the same plug-in to be re-invoked. |
