It is possible to exclude class(es) and/or package(s) from the metrics collection

In that case, HPA agent(s) won’t record the metrics relatives to those end points

  • The file skip_metrics.pbd must be created in <HPA agent dir>/override_config/customeMetrics
  • This file will contain keywords followed by package or class name
    • SkipPackagePrefix to exclude a package
    • SkipClass to exclude a class
SkipPackagePrefix: org.apache

SkipClass: com.calypso.tk.core.DateRule
  • There is no limit regarding the number of exclusions
  • This file must be then referenced in <HPA agent dir>/override_config/customMetrics/hpa_customerconfig.pbl
