Self Observability Metric Description

cgoreceiver

kindling_telemetry_cgoreceiver_events_total

  • Description: The total number of the events received by cgoreceiver.
  • Metric Type: counter
  • Unit: count
  • Labels: Additional labels except the common ones.
Label NameDescriptionExample
nameThe name of the event.write

kindling_telemetry_cgoreceiver_channel_size

  • Description: The current number of events contained in the channel. Cgoreceiver uses a channel to receive events from cgo. This channel is able to accommodate a maximum size of 300,000 events. No events can be received if the channel is full.
  • Metric Type: Gauge
  • Unit: count
  • Labels: No other labels except the common ones.

networkanalyzer

kindling_telemetry_netanalyer_messagepair_size

  • Description: The size of the message pairs stored in the map. Message pairs are the middle data structure of “traces”. This metric is used to identify how many “traces” have not finished yet.
  • Metric Type: Gauge
  • Unit: count
  • Labels: Additional labels except the common ones.
Label NameDescriptionExample
typeThe type of the message pair. tcp or udp.tcp

kindling_telemetry_netanalyer_parsedrequest_total

  • Description: The count of traces that the agent has processed.
  • Metric Type: counter
  • Unit: count
  • Labels: Additional labels except the common ones.
Label NameDescriptionExample
protocolThe protocol of the requests.http

tcpconnectanalyzer

kindling_telemetry_tcpconnectanalyzer_map_size

  • Description: The current number of the connections stored in the map. This map accomodates the events related to the metric “TCP connect”.
  • Metric Type: gauge
  • Unit: count
  • Labels: No other labels except the common ones.

conntracker

kindling_telemetry_conntracker_cache_size

  • Description: The current number of the conntrack records stored in the map.
  • Metric Type: gauge
  • Unit: count
  • Labels: Additional labels except the common ones.
Label NameDescriptionExample
typeThe type of the records. general or orphangeneral

kindling_telemetry_conntracker_cache_max_size

  • Description: The maximum size of the cache map. The default value is 130,000. It can be configured in the configuration file.
  • Metric Type: gauge
  • Unit: count
  • Labels: No other labels except the common ones.

kindling_telemetry_conntracker_operation_times_total

  • Description: The total operation times the conntracker does to the cache map. This metric can reflect the load of the conntracker module.
  • Metric Type: counter
  • Unit: count
  • Labels: Additional labels except the common ones.
Label NameDescriptionExample
opThe opreation names. Could be add, drop, remove, get, or evict.add

kindling_telemetry_conntracker_errors_total

  • Description: The total count of errors the conntracker encounters. This metric can reflect the load of the conntracker module. In most cases, the error type is enobuf that means there are too many records the conntracker generates and there is no buffer to receive them.
  • Metric Type: counter
  • Unit: count
  • Labels: Additional labels except the common ones.
Label NameDescriptionExample
typeThe error types. Could be enobuf, read_errors, or msg_errors.enobuf

kindling_telemetry_conntracker_sampling_rate

  • Description: The sampling rate of the conntracker module. This rate may be automatically decreased if the load is too high.
  • Metric Type: counter
  • Unit: percent
  • Labels: No other labels except the common ones.

kindling_telemetry_conntracker_throttles_total

  • Description: The total count of the records being throttled due to the high load.
  • Metric Type: counter
  • Unit: count
  • Labels: No other labels except the common ones.

otelexporter

kindling_telemetry_otelexporter_metricgroups_received_total

  • Description: The total count of the data received by otelexporter.
  • Metric Type: counter
  • Unit: count
  • Labels: Additional labels except the common ones.
Label NameDescriptionExample
nameThe name of the DataGroup.single_net_request_metric_group

kindling_telemetry_otelexporter_cardinality_size

  • Deprecated.

service.nameThe cluster name which is composed of “kindling” and “cluster ID”.kindling-abcd123
instrumentation.nameA constant “kindling”.kindling
