A cookbook that a handler that sends chef run results to graphite. If you have the ohai-system_pacakges plugin installed, it will also send package statistics to graphite.
The chef_handler
cookbook.
This cookbook uses the following attributes to configure how it is installed.
node['chef_client']['handler']['graphite']['host']
- The graphite server host.node['chef_client']['handler']['graphite']['port']
- The graphite server port.node['chef_client']['handler']['graphite']['prefix']
- The prefix appended to statistics sent to graphite. Defaults to"chef.#{node.chef_environment}.node.#{node['hostname']}"
.
Set the host and port properties on the node and include the "graphite_handler::default" recipe.
The handler was originally written by Ian Meyer and was converted to a cookbook by Peter Donald. Contributions by Lew Goettner.
