--- title: SHOW DIAGNOSTICS statement description: Use the SHOW DIAGNOSTICS statement to monitoring InfluxDB diagnostic information. aliases: - /platform/monitoring/tools/show-diagnostics/ menu: platform: name: SHOW DIAGNOSTICS parent: Other monitoring tools weight: 3 --- Diagnostic information includes mostly information about your InfluxDB server that is not necessarily numerical in format. This diagnostic information is not stored in the [`_internal`](/platform/monitoring/influxdata-platform/tools/measurements-internal/) database. To see InfluxDB server or node diagnostic information, you can use the [`SHOW DIAGNOSTICS`](/influxdb/v1/query_language/spec#show-diagnostics) statement. This statement returns InfluxDB instance information, including build details, uptime, hostname, server configuration, memory usage, and Go runtime diagnostics. This information is particularly useful to InfluxData Support, so be sure to include the output of this query anytime you file a support ticket or GitHub issue. ## `SHOW DIAGNOSTICS` measurement details The `SHOW DIAGNOSTICS` statement returns the following information. #### build - Branch - Build Time - Commit #### config - bind-address - reporting-disabled #### config-coordinator - log-queries-after - max-concurrent-queries - max-select-buckets - max-select-point - max-select-series - query-timeout - write-timeout #### config-cqs - enabled - query-stats-enabled - run-interval #### config-data - cache-max-memory-size - cache-snapshot-memory-size - cache-snapshot-write-cold-duration - compact-full-write-cold-duration - dir - max-concurrent-compactions - max-series-per-database - max-values-per-tag - wal-dir - wal-fsync-delay #### config-httpd - access-log-path - bind-address - enabled - https-enabled - max-connection-limit - max-row-limit #### config-meta - dir #### config-monitor - store-database - store-enabled - store-interval #### config-precreator - advance-period - check-interval - enabled #### config-retention - check-interval - enabled #### config-subscriber - enabled - http-timeout - write-buffer-size - write-concurrency #### network - hostname #### runtime - GOARCH - GOMAXPROCS - GOOS - version #### system - PID currentTime - started - uptime ## Example of `SHOW DIAGNOSTICS` output Here is an example of the output returned when running the `SHOW DIAGNOSTICS` statement on an InfluxDB OSS server. ``` > show diagnostics name: build Branch Build Time Commit Version ------ ---------- ------ ------- master 389de31c961831de0a9f4172173337d4a6193909 v1.6.3 name: config bind-address reporting-disabled ------------ ------------------ 127.0.0.1:8088 false name: config-coordinator log-queries-after max-concurrent-queries max-select-buckets max-select-point max-select-series query-timeout write-timeout ----------------- ---------------------- ------------------ ---------------- ----------------- ------------- ------------- 0s 0 0 0 0 0s 10s name: config-cqs enabled query-stats-enabled run-interval ------- ------------------- ------------ true false 1s name: config-data cache-max-memory-size cache-snapshot-memory-size cache-snapshot-write-cold-duration compact-full-write-cold-duration dir max-concurrent-compactions max-series-per-database max-values-per-tag wal-dir wal-fsync-delay --------------------- -------------------------- ---------------------------------- -------------------------------- --- -------------------------- ----------------------- ------------------ ------- --------------- 1073741824 26214400 10m0s 4h0m0s /usr/local/var/influxdb/data 0 1000000 100000 /usr/local/var/influxdb/wal 0s name: config-httpd access-log-path bind-address enabled https-enabled max-connection-limit max-row-limit --------------- ------------ ------- ------------- -------------------- ------------- :8086 true false 0 0 name: config-meta dir --- /usr/local/var/influxdb/meta name: config-monitor store-database store-enabled store-interval -------------- ------------- -------------- _internal true 10s name: config-precreator advance-period check-interval enabled -------------- -------------- ------- 30m0s 10m0s true name: config-retention check-interval enabled -------------- ------- 30m0s true name: config-subscriber enabled http-timeout write-buffer-size write-concurrency ------- ------------ ----------------- ----------------- true 30s 1000 40 name: network hostname -------- influxdb-1.local name: runtime GOARCH GOMAXPROCS GOOS version ------ ---------- ---- ------- amd64 8 darwin go1.11 name: system PID currentTime started uptime --- ----------- ------- ------ 940 2018-10-15T15:07:47.435739Z 2018-10-15T06:03:34.002126Z 9h4m13.433613s ```
