Custom
You can add a custom metric by using a colon separate string ::. The unit must be recognized by cloudwatch. You may add as many of these as you like.
Usage
- You need to config you aws credential before run the program
- Run the program as following for full metrics push
go-aws-mon --namespace=<NAMESPACE> --mem-util --mem-used --mem-avail --swap-util --swap-used --disk-space-util --disk-inode-util --disk-space-used --disk-space-avail --disk-path=PATH
PATH, multiple paths are supported by comma(,) saperate, e.x. /,/var,/home
- By default, the CloudWatch namespace is "Linux/System" and Memory Utilization and / Disk Utilization are always push
- We recommend to change the bin/mon-put-instance-metric.sh to setup a cron job
