Milestone
Description:
In the current implementation of the engine, the configured
host.name
attribute is automatically resolved to a fully qualified domain name (FQDN). The resolvedhost.name
value is then attached to the OTELHost
resource, and each metric receives this resolvedhost.name
attribute. If any issue arises during this resolution process, a new metric will be generated with a different host name.Proposed Change:
host.name
to FQDN.resolveHostnameToFqdn
to failed by default.resolveHostnameToFqdn
is set totrue
, thehost.name
will be resolved to FQDN, and the resolved value will be set in the OTELHost
resource.resolveHostnameToFqdn
is set tofalse
, the configuredhost.name
will be used as-is to identify the OTELHost
resource, and it will be attached to each metric.Impact:
This is a breaking change, as by default the system will no longer perform automatic FQDN resolution. Users relying on the current FQDN behavior must explicitly enable it using the configuration property
resolveHostnameToFqdn: true
inmetricshub.yaml
