# logind
|
|
|
|
This module monitors active sessions, users, and seats tracked by systemd-logind or elogind.
|
|
|
|
It provides the following charts:
|
|
|
|
1. **Sessions** Tracks the total number of sessions.
|
|
* Graphical: Local graphical sessions (running X11, or Wayland, or something else).
|
|
* Console: Local console sessions.
|
|
* Remote: Remote sessions.
|
|
|
|
2. **Users** Tracks total number of unique user logins of each type.
|
|
* Graphical
|
|
* Console
|
|
* Remote
|
|
|
|
3. **Seats** Total number of seats in use.
|
|

### configuration
|
|
|
|
This module needs no configuration. Just make sure the `netdata` user
|
|
can run the `loginctl` command and get a session list without having to
|
|
specify a path.
|
|
|
|
This will work with any command that can output data in the _exact_
|
|
same format as `loginctl list-sessions --no-legend`. If you have some
|
|
other command you want to use that outputs data in this format, you can
|
|
specify it using the `command` key like so:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
command: '/path/to/other/command'
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### notes
|
|
|
|
* This module's ability to track logins is dependent on what PAM services
|
|
are configured to register sessions with logind. In particular, for
|
|
most systems, it will only track TTY logins, local desktop logins,
|
|
and logins through remote shell connections.
|
|
|
|
* The users chart counts _usernames_ not UID's. This is potentially
|
|
important in configurations where multiple users have the same UID.
|
|
|
|
* The users chart counts any given user name up to once for _each_ type
|
|
of login. So if the same user has a graphical and a console login on a
|
|
system, they will show up once in the graphical count, and once in the
|
|
console count.
|
|
|
|
* Because the data collection process is rather expensive, this plugin
|
|
is currently disabled by default, and needs to be explicitly enabled in
|
|
`/etc/netdata/python.d.conf` before it will run.
