To understand the architecture and metrics themselves, 34 please see the [Nomad telemetry documentation](/docs/agent/telemetry.html). 35 36 ## `telemetry` Parameters 37 38 Due to the number of configurable parameters to the `telemetry` stanza, 39 parameters on this page are grouped by the telemetry provider. 40 41 ### Common 42 43 The following options are available on all telemetry configurations. 44 45 - `disable_hostname` `(bool: false)` - Specifies if gauge values should be 46 prefixed with the local hostname. 47 48 - `collection_interval` `(duration: 1s)` - Specifies the time interval at which 49 the Nomad agent collects telemetry data. 50 51 - `use_node_name` `(bool: false)` - Specifies if gauge values should be 52 prefixed with the name of the node, instead of the hostname. If set it will 53 override [disable_hostname](#disable_hostname) value. 54 55 - `publish_allocation_metrics` `(bool: false)` - Specifies if Nomad should 56 publish runtime metrics of allocations. 57 58 - `publish_node_metrics` `(bool: false)` - Specifies if Nomad should publish 59 runtime metrics of nodes. 60 61 - `backwards_compatible_metrics` `(bool: false)` - Specifies if Nomad should 62 publish metrics that are backwards compatible with versions below 0.7, as 63 post version 0.7, Nomad emits tagged metrics. All new metrics will 64 only be added to tagged metrics. Note that this option is used to transition 65 monitoring to tagged metrics and will eventually be deprecated. 66 67 68 - `disable_tagged_metrics` `(bool: false)` - Specifies if Nomad should not emit 69 tagged metrics and only emit metrics compatible with versions below Nomad 70 0.7. Note that this option is used to transition monitoring to tagged 71 metrics and will eventually be deprecated. 72 73 74 75 ### `statsite` 76 77 These `telemetry` parameters apply to 78 [statsite](https://github.com/armon/statsite). 79 80 - `statsite_address` `(string: "")` - Specifies the address of a statsite server 81 to forward metrics data to. 82 83 ```hcl 84 telemetry { 85 statsite_address = "statsite.company.local:8125" 86 } 87 ``` 88 89 ### `statsd` 90 91 These `telemetry` parameters apply to 92 [statsd](https://github.com/etsy/statsd). 93 94 - `statsd_address` `(string: "")` - Specifies the address of a statsd server to 95 forward metrics to. 96 97 ```hcl 98 telemetry { 99 statsd_address = "statsd.company.local:8125" 100 } 101 ``` 102 103 ### `datadog` 104 105 These `telemetry` parameters apply to 106 [DataDog statsd](https://github.com/DataDog/dd-agent). 107 108 - `datadog_address` `(string: "")` - Specifies the address of a DataDog statsd 109 server to forward metrics to. 110 111 ```hcl 112 telemetry { 113 datadog_address = "dogstatsd.company.local:8125" 114 } 115 ``` 116 117 ### `prometheus` 118 119 These `telemetry` parameters apply to [Prometheus](https://prometheus.io). 120 121 - `prometheus_metrics` `(bool: false)` - Specifies whether the agent should 122 make Prometheus formatted metrics available at `/v1/metrics?format=prometheus`. 123 124 ### `circonus` 125 126 These `telemetry` parameters apply to 127 [Circonus](http://circonus.com/). 128 129 - `circonus_api_token` `(string: "")` - Specifies a valid Circonus API Token 130 used to create/manage check. If provided, metric management is enabled. 131 132 - `circonus_api_app` `(string: "nomad")` - Specifies a valid app name associated 133 with the API token. 134 135 - `circonus_api_url` `(string: "https://api.circonus.com/v2")` - Specifies the 136 base URL to use for contacting the Circonus API. 137 138 - `circonus_submission_interval` `(string: "10s")` - Specifies the interval at 139 which metrics are submitted to Circonus. 140 141 - `circonus_submission_url` `(string: "")` - Specifies the 142 `check.config.submission_url` field, of a Check API object, from a previously 143 created HTTPTRAP check. 144 145 - `circonus_check_id` `(string: "")` - Specifies the Check ID (**not check 146 bundle**) from a previously created HTTPTRAP check. The numeric portion of the 147 `check._cid` field in the Check API object. 148 149 - `circonus_check_force_metric_activation` `(bool: false)` - Specifies if force 150 activation of metrics which already exist and are not currently active. If 151 check management is enabled, the default behavior is to add new metrics as 152 they are encountered. If the metric already exists in the check, it will 153 not be activated. This setting overrides that behavior. 154 155 - `circonus_check_instance_id` `(string: "<hostname>:<application>")` - Serves 156 to uniquely identify the metrics coming from this *instance*. It can be used 157 to maintain metric continuity with transient or ephemeral instances as they 158 move around within an infrastructure. By default, this is set to 159 hostname:application name (e.g. "host123:nomad"). 160 161 - `circonus_check_search_tag` `(string: <service>:<application>)` - Specifies a 162 special tag which, when coupled with the instance id, helps to narrow down the 163 search results when neither a Submission URL or Check ID is provided. By 164 default, this is set to service:app (e.g. "service:nomad"). 165 166 - `circonus_check_display_name` `(string: "")` - Specifies a name to give a 167 check when it is created. This name is displayed in the Circonus UI Checks 168 list. 169 170 - `circonus_check_tags` `(string: "")` - Comma separated list of additional 171 tags to add to a check when it is created. 172 173 - `circonus_broker_id` `(string: "")` - Specifies the ID of a specific Circonus 174 Broker to use when creating a new check. The numeric portion of `broker._cid` 175 field in a Broker API object. If metric management is enabled and neither a 176 Submission URL nor Check ID is provided, an attempt will be made to search for 177 an existing check using Instance ID and Search Tag. If one is not found, a new 178 HTTPTRAP check will be created. By default, this is a random 179 Enterprise Broker is selected, or, the default Circonus Public Broker. 180 181 - `circonus_broker_select_tag` `(string: "")` - Specifies a special tag which 182 will be used to select a Circonus Broker when a Broker ID is not provided. The 183 best use of this is to as a hint for which broker should be used based on 184 *where* this particular instance is running (e.g. a specific geographic location or 185 datacenter, dc:sfo).
