HAproxy Telegraf Input Plugin

The HAProxy Telegraf Plugin gathers metrics using the stats socket or HTTP statistics page of a HAProxy server. These metrics will help you improve the performance of your web applications. Keep in mind that it is important to collect metrics to gain visibility into HAProxy’s performance as well. These insights will easily detect and resolve issues proactively ensuring the health of your HAProxy instance — and importantly, ensure the performance and reliability of your server environment.

The following information may be useful when getting started, but please consult the HAProxy documentation for complete and up-to-date instructions.

The stats enable option can be used to add unauthenticated access over HTTP using the default settings. To enable the unix socket, begin by reading about the stats socket option.

Some of the important HAproxy metrics that you should proactively monitor include:

• server - address of the server data was gathered from
• proxy - proxy name
• sv - service name
• type - proxy session type
• status (string)
• check_status (string)
• last_chk (string)
• mode (string)
• tracked (string)
• agent_status (string)
• last_agt (string)
• addr (string)
