Dear community, dear Nigel,

we have the need to collect the data with njmon and write it into a json file to upload it with filebeat against Elastic (Kafka => Logstash => and so on...) and on the same time, we want to have the data in a stream to njmond to influxDB.

The data that goes to Elastic will be filtered out to a minimum by logstash, so we as admins want to use influxDB and Grafana for our purpose. 

Is that possible? If yes, how???

Many thanks in advance.

kind regards

Hi Joerg,

I am not Nigel, but I think it could be possible to do with Telegraf. It can take one stream of data and convert and send it to several destinations.

Thanks Andrey. I didn't know that tool...
I looked into it shortly, but it looks it is not supported for AIX and even more in the forum they recommend to use nmon / njmon

Here is btw old Nigel's documentation how to configure njmon + telegraf + prometheus. I hope it helps you to configure your environment.

I think Andrey has answer perfectly.

njmon is fairly light weight in CPU cycles so you may consider running two copies to keep it simple i.e. KISS.
telegraf can do the one input and two outputs for you and even the filtering (or so I am told, not tried that myself).
If you would like a conversation about this me know.  Telephone of Webex/zoom or your choice o tool.

cheers, Nigel

ps: thanks Andrey.
