The logs centralization points and the metrics centralization points do not need to be the same. For clarity and simplicity however, when not otherwise required for operational or regulatory reasons, we recommend to have unified centralization points for both metrics and logs. diff --git a/docs/observability-centralization-points/metrics-centralization-points/configuration.md b/docs/observability-centralization-points/metrics-centralization-points/configuration.md index e52f7309ff..d25f3b92d7 100644 --- a/docs/observability-centralization-points/metrics-centralization-points/configuration.md +++ b/docs/observability-centralization-points/metrics-centralization-points/configuration.md @@ -61,7 +61,7 @@ While encrypting the connection between your parent and child nodes is recommend This example uses self-signed certificates. > **Note** -> This section assumes you have read the documentation on [how to edit the Netdata configuration files](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/docs/netdata-agent/configuration.md). +> This section assumes you have read the documentation on [how to edit the Netdata configuration files](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/docs/netdata-agent/configuration/README.md). <!-- here we need link to the section that will contain the restarting instructions --> 1. **Parent node** |
