Host

To configure this check for an Agent running on a host:

Metric collection

1. Edit the squid.d/conf.yaml, in the conf.d/ folder at the root of your Agent’s configuration directory. See the sample squid.d/conf.yaml for all available configuration options.

2. Restart the Agent.

Log collection

Available for Agent versions >6.0

1. Collecting logs is disabled by default in the Datadog Agent, enable it in your datadog.yaml file:

   logs_enabled: true
   

2. Uncomment and edit this configuration block at the bottom of your squid.d/conf.yaml file:

   logs:
     - type: file
       path: /var/log/squid/cache.log
       service: "<SERVICE-NAME>"
       source: squid
     - type: file
       path: /var/log/squid/access.log
       service: "<SERVICE-NAME>"
       source: squid
   

   Change the path and service parameter values and configure them for your environment.

3. Restart the Agent.
