Bosh HM Forwarder Release

Bosh HM Forwarder is a companion job to metron_agent that sends bosh health metrics through loggregator.

Usage

bosh_hm_forwarder is to be colocated with a metron_agent. It reads metrics from the host VM and forwards them (via UDP) to the metron_agent.

Deployment

   ases:
   

2. • name: bosh-hm-forwarder

3. version: latest

   • name: loggregator version: latest

   Then bosh upload release the latest bosh-hm-forwarder-release.

4. Colocate the job that has metron_agent.

   :
   name: some_job_z1
   mplates:
   name: metron_agent
   release: loggegator
   name: boshhmforwarder
   release: bosh-hm-forwarder
   stances: 1
   source_pool: default
   tworks:
   - name: default
   operties:

   Then bosh deploy this updated manifest.

The bosh director needs to be updated to enable the OpenTSDB health monitor.
