The UnixSock plugin opens a UNIX domain socket and accepts connections. Using this socket one can send commands to the daemon and receive information. The protocol used is documented in the collectd-unixsock(5) manual page and in the Plain text protocol wiki page.
This plugin is a generic plugin, i.e. it cannot work without configuration, because there is no reasonable default behavior. Please read the Plugin unixsock section of the collectd.conf(5) manual page for an in-depth description of the plugin's configuration.
