process collector

The process collector exposes metrics about processes

Metric name prefix process
Data source Perflib
Counters Process
Enabled by default? No

Flags

--collector.process.whitelist

Regexp of processes to include. Process name must both match whitelist and not match blacklist to be included. Recommended to keep down number of returned metrics.

--collector.process.blacklist

Regexp of processes to exclude. Process name must both match whitelist and not match blacklist to be included. Recommended to keep down number of returned metrics.

Example

To match all firefox processes: --collector.process.whitelist="firefox.+". Note that multiple processes with the same name will be disambiguated by Windows by adding a number suffix, such as firefox#2. Your regexp must take these suffixes into consideration.

⚠️ The regexp is case-sensitive, so --collector.process.whitelist="FIREFOX.+" will NOT match a process named firefox .

To specify multiple names, use the pipe | character:

--collector.process.whitelist="firefox.+|FIREFOX.+|chrome.+"

This will match all processes named firefox, FIREFOX or chrome .
