Overview

Module prometheus_vm_statistics_collector

• Description

Behaviours: prometheus_collector.

Description

Collects Erlang VM metrics using erlang:statistics/1 .

Exported metrics

• erlang_vm_statistics_bytes_output_total
  Type: counter.
  The total number of bytes output to ports.
• erlang_vm_statistics_bytes_received_total
  Type: counter.
  The total number of bytes received through ports.
• erlang_vm_statistics_context_switches
  Type: counter.
  The total number of context switches since the system started.
• erlang_vm_statistics_dirty_cpu_run_queue_length
  Type: gauge.
  Length of the dirty CPU run-queue.
• erlang_vm_statistics_dirty_io_run_queue_length
  Type: gauge.
  Length of the dirty IO run-queue.
• erlang_vm_statistics_garbage_collection_number_of_gcs
  Type: counter.
  The total number of garbage collections since the system started.
• erlang_vm_statistics_garbage_collection_words_reclaimed
  Type: counter.
  The total number of words reclaimed by GC since the system started.
• erlang_vm_statistics_garbage_collection_bytes_reclaimed
  Type: counter.
  The total number of bytes reclaimed by GC since the system started.
• erlang_vm_statistics_reductions_total
  Type: counter.
  Total reductions count.
• erlang_vm_statistics_run_queues_length
  Type: gauge.
  The total length of all normal run-queues. That is, the number of processes and ports that are ready to run on all available normal run-queues.
• erlang_vm_statistics_runtime_milliseconds
  Type: counter.
  The sum of the runtime for all threads in the Erlang runtime system.
• erlang_vm_statistics_wallclock_time_milliseconds
  Type: counter.
  Can be used in the same manner as erlang_vm_statistics_runtime_milliseconds, except that real time is measured as opposed to runtime or CPU time.
