DPDK telemetry plugin for Collectd won't show DPDK application metrics

DPDK telemetry plugin for Collectd won't show DPDK application metrics

I want to use collectd's DPDK telemetry plugin for exporting metrics from DPDK application. But it won't work. I had uncommented LoadPlugin dpdk_telemetry, and my Collectd config for dpdk-telemetry is :

<Plugin dpdk_telemetry>

ClientSocketPath "/var/run/dpdk/rte/mp_socket"
        DpdkSocketPath "/var/run/dpdk/rte/dpdk_telemetry.v2"
</Plugin>

I expect Collectd to work as before, but when I open Collectd output metrics (port 9103 by default), It won't show anything.
(NOTE: I'm running all of them on a single virtual machine in a VMware)

I am not familiar with collectd.
You may have some luck asking here about the dpdk plugin.
However, I suggest you turn to the collectd community first to check
that your collectd configuration is valid before looking at help from
the dpdk side.
