Retina Config

Overview​

To customize metrics and other options, you can modify Retina's ConfigMap called retina-config. Defaults are specified for each component in deploy/manifests/controller/helm/retina/values.yaml.

Agent Config​

  • enablePodLevel: When this toggle is set to true, Retina will gather Advanced/Pod-Level metrics. Advanced metrics can attach Pod metadata to Retina's metrics.
  • remoteContext: When this toggle is set to true, retina will watch Pods on the cluster.
  • enableAnnotations: When this toggle is set to true, retina will gather metrics for the annotated resources. Namespaces or Pods can be annotated with retina.sh/v1alpha=observe. The operator and enableRetinaEndpoint for the operator should be enabled.
  • enabledPlugin_linux: Array of enabled plugins for linux.
  • enabledPlugin_win: Array of enabled plugins for windows.
  • metricsInterval: the interval for which metrics will be gathered.

Operator Config​

  • installCRDs: When this toggle is set, the operator will handle installing Retina-related CRDs.
  • enableRetinaEndpoint: When this toggle is set, the operator will watch and update the cache with Pod metadata.
