Collectors Capacity review
- 2 years ago
“Collector Thread: Time” or “Collector Thread: CPU” in your screenshot are good ones as well.
If you see any specific instance spiking (let’s say, batchscript), it means the collector needs more threads put towards that collection method. The threads can be raised in the collector config (colector.batchscript.threadpool is a very common one to raise), but should only be done if the CPU and Memory of the host are not reaching their peak. I’d recommend reaching out to support before making any collector config changes for general guidance.
Collector Data Collecting Tasks (also seen under that collector datasource list in your screenshot) is also very useful. If you see a queue depth (on graph), it might mean the collector is having trouble keeping up with the load.
