SignalFx Smart Agent Extension

The smartagent extension provides a mechanism to specify config options that are not just specific to a single instance of the smartagent receiver but are applicable to all instances of the smartagent receiver.

To begin with, this extension will provide a mechanism to specify config options to configure collectd. These options are mapped to the collectd config options in the SignalFx Agent. Note that if this extension is not configured, the defaults in smartagent receiver will be used.

In the below example configuration, configDir and bundleDir will be used for all instances of the smartagent receiver that wrap around a collectd based monitor.

extensions:
  smartagent:
    bundleDir: /bundle/
    collectd:
      configDir: /etc/collectd/

The full list of settings exposed for this receiver are documented here with detailed sample configurations here.
