Enable Kube State Metrics

Agent Versions 12.5.0 and Onward

HPA kube state metrics are no longer collected by default. To enable the agent to collect HPA kube state metrics, you must edit the agent configuration file, dragent.yaml, and include it along with the other resources you would like to collect.

For example, to collect all supported resources including HPAs, add the following to dragent.yaml:

k8s_extra_resources:
    include:
      - services
      - resourcequotas
      - persistentvolumes
      - persistentvolumeclaims
      - horizontalpodautoscalers

Agent Versions 12.3.x and 12.4.x

The Sysdig agent collects HPA, PVS, PV, Resourcequota, and Services kube state metrics by default.

To disable some of them, you must edit the agent config file, dragent.yaml, as follows:

k8s_extra_resources:
    include:
      - services
      - resourcequotas
      - persistentvolumes
      - persistentvolumeclaims
      - horizontalpodautoscalers

The above list includes all the supported resources so you must remove the resources you are not interested in. For example, if you wanted to disable Services, it should look like the following:

k8s_extra_resources:
    include:
      - resourcequotas
      - persistentvolumes
      - persistentvolumeclaims
      - horizontalpodautoscalers
