# `telemetry` Stanza
<Placement groups={['telemetry']} />
The `telemetry` stanza configures Nomad's publication of metrics and telemetry
to third-party systems.
```hcl
telemetry {
publish_allocation_metrics = true
publish_node_metrics = true
}
```
This section of the documentation only covers the configuration options for
`telemetry` stanza. To understand the architecture and metrics themselves,
please see the [Telemetry guide](/docs/telemetry).
## `telemetry` Parameters
Due to the number of configurable parameters to the `telemetry` stanza,
parameters on this page are grouped by the telemetry provider.
### Common
The following options are available on all telemetry configurations.
- `disable_hostname` `(bool: false)` - Specifies if gauge values should be
prefixed with the local hostname.
- `collection_interval` `(duration: 1s)` - Specifies the time interval at which
the Nomad agent collects telemetry data.
- `use_node_name` `(bool: false)` - Specifies if gauge values should be
prefixed with the name of the node, instead of the hostname. If set it will
override [disable_hostname](#disable_hostname) value.
- `publish_allocation_metrics` `(bool: false)` - Specifies if Nomad should
publish runtime metrics of allocations.
- `publish_node_metrics` `(bool: false)` - Specifies if Nomad should publish
runtime metrics of nodes.
- `backwards_compatible_metrics` `(bool: false)` - Specifies if Nomad should
publish metrics that are backwards compatible with versions below 0.7, as
post version 0.7, Nomad emits tagged metrics. All new metrics will
only be added to tagged metrics. Note that this option is used to transition
monitoring to tagged metrics and will eventually be deprecated.
- `disable_tagged_metrics` `(bool: false)` - Specifies if Nomad should not emit
tagged metrics and only emit metrics compatible with versions below Nomad
0.7. Note that this option is used to transition monitoring to tagged
metrics and will eventually be deprecated.
- `filter_default` `(bool: true)` - This controls whether to allow metrics that
have not been specified by the filter. Defaults to true, which will allow all
metrics when no filters are provided. When set to false with no filters, no
metrics will be sent.
- `prefix_filter` `(list: [])` - This is a list of filter rules to apply for
allowing/blocking metrics by prefix. A leading "<b>+</b>" will enable any
metrics with the given prefix, and a leading "<b>-</b>" will block them. If
there is overlap between two rules, the more specific rule will take
precedence. Blocking will take priority if the same prefix is listed multiple
times.
```python
['-nomad.raft', '+nomad.raft.apply', '-nomad.memberlist']
```
- `disable_dispatched_job_summary_metrics` `(bool: false)` - Specifies if Nomad
should ignore jobs dispatched from a parameterized job when publishing job
summary statistics. Since each job has a small memory overhead for tracking
summary statistics, it is sometimes desired to trade these statistics for
more memory when dispatching high volumes of jobs.
### `statsite`
These `telemetry` parameters apply to
[statsite](https://github.com/armon/statsite).
- `statsite_address` `(string: "")` - Specifies the address of a statsite server
to forward metrics data to.
```hcl
telemetry {
statsite_address = "statsite.company.local:8125"
}
```
### `statsd`
These `telemetry` parameters apply to
[statsd](https://github.com/etsy/statsd).
- `statsd_address` `(string: "")` - Specifies the address of a statsd server to
forward metrics to.
```hcl
telemetry {
statsd_address = "statsd.company.local:8125"
}
```
### `datadog`
These `telemetry` parameters apply to
[DataDog statsd](https://github.com/DataDog/datadog-agent).
- `datadog_address` `(string: "")` - Specifies the address of a DataDog statsd
server to forward metrics to.
- `datadog_tags` `(list: [])` - Specifies a list of global tags that will be
added to all telemetry packets sent to DogStatsD. It is a list of strings,
where each string looks like "my_tag_name:my_tag_value".
```hcl
telemetry {
datadog_address = "dogstatsd.company.local:8125"
datadog_tags = ["my_tag_name:my_tag_value"]
}
```
### `prometheus`
These `telemetry` parameters apply to [Prometheus](https://prometheus.io).
- `prometheus_metrics` `(bool: false)` - Specifies whether the agent should
make Prometheus formatted metrics available at `/v1/metrics?format=prometheus`.
### `circonus`
These `telemetry` parameters apply to
[Circonus](http://circonus.com/).
- `circonus_api_token` `(string: "")` - Specifies a valid Circonus API Token
used to create/manage check. If provided, metric management is enabled.
- `circonus_api_app` `(string: "nomad")` - Specifies a valid app name associated
with the API token.
- `circonus_api_url` `(string: "https://api.circonus.com/v2")` - Specifies the
base URL to use for contacting the Circonus API.
- `circonus_submission_interval` `(string: "10s")` - Specifies the interval at
which metrics are submitted to Circonus.
- `circonus_submission_url` `(string: "")` - Specifies the
`check.config.submission_url` field, of a Check API object, from a previously
created HTTPTRAP check.
- `circonus_check_id` `(string: "")` - Specifies the Check ID (**not check
bundle**) from a previously created HTTPTRAP check. The numeric portion of the
`check._cid` field in the Check API object.
- `circonus_check_force_metric_activation` `(bool: false)` - Specifies if force
activation of metrics which already exist and are not currently active. If
check management is enabled, the default behavior is to add new metrics as
they are encountered. If the metric already exists in the check, it will
not be activated. This setting overrides that behavior.
- `circonus_check_instance_id` `(string: "<hostname>:<application>")` - Serves
to uniquely identify the metrics coming from this _instance_. It can be used
to maintain metric continuity with transient or ephemeral instances as they
move around within an infrastructure. By default, this is set to
hostname:application name (e.g. "host123:nomad").
- `circonus_check_search_tag` `(string: <service>:<application>)` - Specifies a
special tag which, when coupled with the instance id, helps to narrow down the
search results when neither a Submission URL or Check ID is provided. By
default, this is set to service:app (e.g. "service:nomad").
- `circonus_check_display_name` `(string: "")` - Specifies a name to give a
check when it is created. This name is displayed in the Circonus UI Checks
list.
- `circonus_check_tags` `(string: "")` - Comma separated list of additional
tags to add to a check when it is created.
- `circonus_broker_id` `(string: "")` - Specifies the ID of a specific Circonus
Broker to use when creating a new check. The numeric portion of `broker._cid`
field in a Broker API object. If metric management is enabled and neither a
Submission URL nor Check ID is provided, an attempt will be made to search for
an existing check using Instance ID and Search Tag. If one is not found, a new
HTTPTRAP check will be created. By default, this is a random
Enterprise Broker is selected, or, the default Circonus Public Broker.
- `circonus_broker_select_tag` `(string: "")` - Specifies a special tag which
will be used to select a Circonus Broker when a Broker ID is not provided. The
best use of this is to as a hint for which broker should be used based on
_where_ this particular instance is running (e.g. a specific geographic location or
datacenter, dc:sfo).
