We have a requirement to collect individual process metrics from windows and Linux machines . We have used Procstat Input with .exe method for windows. Will the same plugin will work on Linux as well?? Will all the fields and tag will be the same for Linux as well ??
Here is the example output from the README, which shows both OSes; it looks pretty consistent:

The README also suggests that using win_perf_counters might be better for Windows; but I’ll let you decide which fits your use case more.
@rawkode Thanks for the quick reply.I will check once and get back to you.
