1.4.3.2. Disable metrics-collector on a single cluster

You can disable the metrics-collector on specific managed clusters by completing one of the following procedures:

  • Add the observability: disabled label to the custom resource, managedclusters.cluster.open-cluster-management.io.

  • From the Red Hat Advanced Cluster Management console Clusters page, add the observability: disabled label by completing the following steps:

    1. In the Red Hat Advanced Cluster Management console navigation, select Automate infrastructure > Clusters.
    2. Select the name of the cluster for which you want to disable data collection that is sent to observability.
    3. Select Labels.

    4. Create the label that disables the observability collection by adding the following label: 

      observability=disable
    5. Select Add to add the label.
    6. Select Done to close the list of labels.

Note: When a managed cluster with the observability component is detached, the metrics-collector deployments are removed.
