NOTICE Semantic Conventions are moving to a new location.

No changes to this document are allowed.

Status: Experimental

This document describes instruments and attributes for common hardware level metrics in OpenTelemetry. Consider the general metric semantic conventions when creating instruments not explicitly defined in the specification.

Common hardware attributes

All metrics in hw. instruments should be attached to a Host Resource and therefore inherit its attributes, like host.id and host.name.

Additionally, all metrics in hw. instruments have the following attributes:

Attribute Key Description Example Requirement Level
id An identifier for the hardware component, unique within the monitored host win32battery_battery_testsysa33_1 Required
name An easily-recognizable name for the hardware component eth0 Recommended
parent Unique identifier of the parent component (typically the id attribute of the enclosure, or disk controller) dellStorage_perc_0 Recommended

Metric Instruments

hw. - Common hardware metrics

The below metrics apply to any type of hardware component.

Name Description Units Instrument Type (*) Value Type Attribute Key(s) Attribute Values
hw.energy Energy consumed by the component, in joules J Counter Int64
hw.errors Number of errors encountered by the component {error} Counter Int64 hw.error.type (Recommended)
hw.power Instantaneous power consumed by the component, in Watts (hw.energy is preferred) W Gauge Double
hw.status Operational status: 1 (true) or 0 (false) for each of the possible states UpDownCounter Int state (Required) ok, degraded, failed

These common hw. metrics must include the below attributes to describe the monitored component:

Attribute Key Description Example Requirement Level
hw.type Type of the component battery, cpu, disk_controller, enclosure, fan, gpu, logical_disk, memory, network, physical_disk, power_supply, tape_drive, temperature, voltage Required

Warning

hw.status is currently specified as an UpDownCounter but would ideally be represented using a StateSet as defined in OpenMetrics. This semantic convention will be updated once StateSet is specified in OpenTelemetry. This planned change is not expected to have any consequence on the way users query their timeseries backend to retrieve the values of hw.status over time.

hw.host. - Physical host metrics

Description: Physical system as opposed to a virtual system or a container. Examples: physical server, switch or disk array.

Name Description Units Instrument Type (*) Value Type Attribute Key(s) Attribute Values

hw.host.energy Total energy consumed by the entire physical host, in joules J Counter Int64
hw.host.heating_margin By how many degrees Celsius the temperature of the physical host can be increased, before reaching a warning threshold on one of the internal sensors Cel Gauge Double
hw.host.power Instantaneous power consumed by the entire physical host in Watts (hw.host.energy is preferred) W Gauge Double

Note The overall energy usage of a host MUST be reported using the specific hw.host.energy and hw.host.power metrics only, instead of the generic hw.energy and hw.power described in the previous section, to prevent summing up overlapping values.
