Introduction

Ver. 1.0

This agent plugin monitors NVIDIA GPU statistics by shelling out to nvidia-smi. It emits Pandora FMS <module> XML blocks to stdout, which the local EndPoint ingests via the module_plugin directive.

Type: agent plugin (agent-side, single-binary)

It reports 18 metrics per GPU (Utilization, Temperature, Memory, Power, Fan, Clock, Throttling, ECC errors, Performance State, Name) plus 3 host-wide globals (GPU count, driver version, CUDA version). Module count is 18N + 3 (17N + 3 with --include-fan=false), where N is the number of GPUs.
