Unknown instance unknown? about glances HOT 7 CLOSED

Hi @ChillarAnand

can you run the following command line and copy/paste the result:

glances --stdout cloud --stop-after 1

the cloud plugin is disable by default, check in your configuration file (~/.glances.conf) that:

[cloud]
# Documentation: https://glances.readthedocs.io/en/latest/aoa/cloud.html
# This plugin is disabled by default
disable=True

Additional question: why do you run Glances with sudo, it is not secure....

from glances.

❯ glances --stdout cloud --stop-after 1
cloud: {}

I don't have "cloud" section in config.

If I run without sudo, output is as below. Horizontal lines are messed up.

My advice is to use the default glances.conf file (https://github.com/nicolargo/glances/blob/master/conf/glances.conf) and add your amp section inside it. If you overwrite the glances.conf, some sections (like the cloud one) are missing.

Concerning the strange behavor with the separators, you can disable its from tge configuration file:

[outputs]
separator=False

Can you copy/paste the result of the following command:

# echo $TERM

# sudo echo $TERM

Even if some sections are missing, should they take "default" values by default?

By using the above config file, "Unknown" issue is resolved now.

For the separator issue, another issue has been opened: #2817
