tcollector-osx

Simple OpenTSDB collector scripts for OS X. tcollector itself runs unmodified on OS X, once you install pgrep, which you can do with Homebrew.

brew install pgrep

Collectors

These have been tested on OS X 10.7 Lion only. Your mileage may vary on older releases.

• dfstat.py, adapted from the version included in tcollector. It has the limitation that the fstype= tag is missing from the generated metrics, because OS X's version of df doesn't expose that information.

• vmstat.py, handles the system memory usage exposed by vm_stat

• iostat.py creates metrics from the CPU usage, disk, and load averages produced by iostat.

Other Stats

Apple seems to enjoy making the output of their stats utilities human readable, but harder to machine parse. netstat -m, netstat -mm, and netstat -s, for example.
