Overview

The Agent’s Memcache check lets you track Memcache’s memory use, hits, misses, evictions, fill percent, and much more.

Setup

Installation

The Memcache check is included in the Datadog Agent package, so you don’t need to install anything else on your Memcache servers.

Configuration

Follow the instructions below to configure this check for an Agent running on a host. For containerized environments, see the Containerized section

When launching the Memcache server, set the binding protocol -B to binary or auto. Automatic (auto) is the default.

Metric collection

Host

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

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

    init_config:
    
    instances:
      ## @param url - string - required
      ## url used to connect to the Memcached instance.
      #
      - url: localhost
    
  2. Restart the Agent to begin sending Memcache metrics to Datadog.

Trace collection

Datadog APM integrates with Memcache to see the traces across your distributed system. Trace collection is enabled by default in the Datadog Agent v6+. To start collecting traces:

  1. Enable trace collection in Datadog.
  2. Instrument your application that makes requests to Memcache.

Containerized

For containerized environments, see the Autodiscovery Integration Templates for guidance on applying the parameters below.

ParameterValue
<INTEGRATION_NAME>mcache
<INIT_CONFIG>blank or {}
<INSTANCE_CONFIG>{"url": "%%host%%","port": "11211"}
Trace collection

APM for containerized apps is supported on hosts running Agent v6+ but requires extra configuration to begin collecting traces.

Required environment variables on the Agent container:

ParameterValue
<DD_API_KEY>api_key
<DD_APM_ENABLED>true
<DD_APM_NON_LOCAL_TRAFFIC>true

See Tracing Kubernetes Applications and the Kubernetes Daemon Setup for a complete list of available environment variables and configuration.

Then, instrument your application container and set DD_AGENT_HOST to the name of your Agent container.

Log collection

Available for Agent versions >6.0

  1. Add this configuration block to your mcache.d/conf.yaml file to start collecting your Memcached Logs:

    logs:
      - type: file
        path: /var/log/memcached.log
        source: memcached
        service: mcache
    

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

  2. Restart the Agent to validate these changes.

Validation

Run the Agent’s status subcommand and look for mcache under the Checks section.

The check only collects memcache.slabs.* metrics if you set options.slabs: true in mcache.d/conf.yaml. Likewise, it only collects memcache.items.* metrics if you set options.items: true.

Events

The Mcache check does not include any events.

Service Checks
