Dashboard Metrics Documentation - what do they mean? #1913

Open jsh2134 opened 8 years ago

jsh2134 commented 8 years ago

Is there any documentation about what the internal state metrics actually mean? I am trying to better monitor our Heka logging system with datadog

The docs show whats returned but not what they mean https://hekad.readthedocs.org/en/latest/monitoring/index.html

What is: InChanCapacity vs InChanLength? injectRecycleChan vis inputRecycleChan? MatchChanCapacity and MatchChanLength?

I can make some educated guesses but would love to know for sure.

Thanks!
