The nfsiostat collector reads data from /proc/self/mountstats and outputs a handful node metrics for each NFS filesystem. If a metric or filesystem is not required, it can be excluded from forwarding it to the sink. Note: When excluding metrics, you must provide the base metric name (e.g. pageread) without the nfsio_ prefix. This exclusion applies to both absolute and derived values.

Metrics:

• nfsio_nread: Bytes transferred by normal read() calls
• nfsio_nwrite: Bytes transferred by normal write() calls
• nfsio_oread: Bytes transferred by read() calls with O_DIRECT
• nfsio_owrite: Bytes transferred by write() calls with O_DIRECT
• nfsio_pageread: Pages transferred by read() calls
• nfsio_pagewrite: Pages transferred by write() calls
• nfsio_nfsread: Bytes transferred for reading from the server
• nfsio_nfswrite: Pages transferred by writing to the server

For each of these, if derived values are enabled, an additional metric is sent with the _bw suffix, which represents the rate:

• For normal byte metrics: unit=bytes/sec
• For page metrics: unit=4K_pages/s

The nfsiostat collector adds the mountpoint to the tags as stype=filesystem,stype-id=<mountpoint>. If the server address should be used instead of the mountpoint, use the use_server_as_stype config setting.
