# netdata configuration for aggregating data from remote hosts
#
# API keys authorize a pair of sending-receiving netdata servers.
# Once their communication is authorized, they can exchange metrics for any
# number of hosts.
#
# You can generate API keys, with the linux command: uuidgen
#
# -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
# 1. SLAVE NETDATA - THE ONE THAT WILL BE SENDING METRICS
#
# In /etc/netdata/netdata.conf you have a configuration like this:
#
# [stream]
#
# # enable or disable sending metrics.
# # default: no
# enabled = yes
#
# # one or more netdata hosts to send metrics to.
# # only one will get them, the first available.
# destination = HOST1:PORT1 HOST2:PORT2 ...
#
# # the API key to use, to authorize ourselves
# api key = API_KEY
#
# -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
# 2. MASTER NETDATA - THE ONE THAT WILL BE RECEIVING METRICS
#
# Use this file to define the API keys is accepts.
#
# You can have one API key per slave, or the same API key for all slaves.
#
# All options below are used in this order:
#
# a) MACHINE_GUID (settings for each machine)
# b) API_KEY (settings for the API key)
# c) this netdata defaults (as in netdata.conf)
#
# You can combine the above (the more specific setting will be used).
#
# -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
# API key authentication
# If the key is not listed here, it will not be able to connect.
[API_KEY]
# Default settings for the API key
# You can disable the API key, by setting this to: no
# The default (for unknown API keys) is also: no
# enabled = yes
# The default history in entries, for all hosts using this API key.
# You can also set it per host below.
# If you don't set it here, the history size of the central netdata
# will be used
# default history = 3600
# The default memory mode to be used for all hosts using this API key.
# You can also set it per host below.
# If you don't set it here, the memory mode of the central netdata
# will be used.
# Valid modes: save (load/save db), map (like swap), ram (no disk)
# default memory mode = save
# Shall we enable health monitoring for the hosts using this API key?
# 3 values:
# yes enable alarms
# no do not enable alarms
# auto enable alarms, only when the host is streaming metrics
# You can also set it per host, below.
# The default is the same as the central netdata
# health enabled by default = auto
# -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Each netdata has a unique GUID - generated the first time netdata starts.
# You can find it at /var/lib/netdata/registry/netdata.public.unique.id
# The host sending data will have one. If it is static and you can find it,
# you can give settings for each specific host here.
[MACHINE_GUID]
# This can be used to stop receiving data
# THIS IS NOT A SECURITY MECHANISM - AN ATTACKER CAN SET ANY OTHER GUID.
# Use only the API key for security.
# enabled = yes
# The number of entries in the database
# history = 3600
# The memory mode of the database
# memory mode = save
# Health / alarms control: yes | no | auto
# health enabled = yes
