Configuration¶

Configuration options · from collectd.conf(5)

See this section in the full configuration reference

The mbmon plugin uses mbmon to retrieve temperature, voltage, etc.

Be default collectd connects to localhost (127.0.0.1), port 411/tcp. The Host and Port options can be used to change these values, see below. mbmon has to be running to work correctly. If mbmon is not running timeouts may appear which may interfere with other statistics..

mbmon must be run with the -r option ("print TAG and Value format"); Debian's /etc/init.d/mbmon script already does this, other people will need to ensure that this is the case.

Host Hostname: Hostname to connect to. Defaults to 127.0.0.1.
Port Port: TCP-Port to connect to. Defaults to 411.
