autoinc

The autoinc domain reports how much of each auto-increment column’s numeric range has been used.

Usage

The collector reads auto-increment columns from information_schema.COLUMNS and information_schema.TABLES. It reports a usage value from 0 to 1 by dividing the table’s next AUTO_INCREMENT value by the maximum value of the column’s signed or unsigned integer type.

Collect this domain infrequently because auto-increment utilization usually changes slowly. Alert before usage reaches 1 so the column can be widened or converted to an unsigned type.
