I am not able to get the Telegraf “internal” plugin to collect data inside the Telegraf docker container. Other plugins like docker, mem, cpu etc… works fine. Can you confirm if this plugin works for Telegraf docker? If yes, what am i missing in my docker command?
Here is my Ansible playbook to create the Telegraf container, running multiple telegraf instance per input listener.
- name: Create Telegraf Container
become: yes
docker_container:
name: telegraf-{{ item }}
image: “{{ image_name }}”
hostname: “{{ ansible_nodename }}_{{ item }}”
restart_policy: always
state: started
published_ports: “{{ item }}:{{ item }}”
exposed_ports: “{{ item }}/tcp”
volumes:
- /etc/telegraf/telegraf-{{ item }}.conf:/etc/telegraf/telegraf.conf:ro
- /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock:ro
- /sys:/rootfs/sys:ro
- /proc:/rootfs/proc:ro
- /etc:/rootfs/etc:ro
with_items:- 8186
- 8187
- 8188
- 8189
notify: - wait for port {{ item }} status
