View Source Configuring OS Data

This guide covers how to install and configure your LiveDashboard OS Data.

Enabling os_mon

The OS Data comes from the os_mon application, which ships as part of your Erlang distribution. You can start it by adding it to the extra applications section in your mix.exs:

  def application do
    [
      ...,
      extra_applications: [:logger, :runtime_tools, :os_mon]
    ]
  end

Some operating systems break Erlang into multiple packages. In this case, you may need to install a package such as erlang-os-mon or similar.

Configuring os_mon

See the Erlang docs for more information and os_mon configuration.
