docker plugin is loaded but container info is not logged

[karun211]

We are able to get docker plugin successfully loaded on RHEL 7 as detailed in readme instructions. Collectd is reporting all other metrics but none from docker plugin in rrd directory.

[root@hostname lib]# rpm -qa | grep docker
docker-1.10.3-46.el7.centos.10.x86_64
docker-common-1.10.3-46.el7.centos.10.x86_64
docker-selinux-1.10.3-46.el7.centos.10.x86_64
[root@hostname lib]# rpm -qa | grep collectd
collectd-5.5.2-1.el7.x86_64

collectd startup log:

Sep 14 17:40:13 hostname systemd[1]: Started Collectd statistics daemon.
Sep 14 17:40:13 hostname collectd[9951]: docker : Collecting stats about Docker containers from unix://var/run/docker.sock (API version 1.22; timeout: 3s).
Sep 14 17:40:13 hostname collectd[9951]: Initialization complete, entering read-loop.

There are live containers running too,

[root@hostname lib]# docker ps -l
CONTAINER ID IMAGE COMMAND CREATED STATUS PORTS NAMES
faefa4e8ab45 nginx "nginx -g 'daemon off" 2 hours ago Up 2 hours 443/tcp, 0.0.0.0:32834->80/tcp stress_20c58eeafd_c3e3f83ca0

Any suggestions or thoughts ?

Thanks!
