Configure telemetry

By default, MCR automatically records and transmits data to Mirantis for monitoring and analysis purposes. The data collected provides the Mirantis Customer Success Organization with information that helps us to better understand the operational use of MCR by our customers. It also provides key feedback in the form of product usage statistics, which enable our product teams to enhance Mirantis products and services.

• To disable the telemetry function, set features.telemetry to false in your daemon.json file.

  Note

  • The daemon.json file is located at /etc/docker/daemon.json on Linux systems and at %PROGRAMDATA%\docker\config\daemon.json on Windows systems.

  {"features":{"telemetry":false}}
  

  Important

  You can only disable the telemetry function for MCR instances to which a valid license has been applied. Once the applied license expires, MCR resumes telemetry transmission to Mirantis.

• To re-enable the telemetry function, change the setting to true or remove it entirely.

• To apply configuration changes following an edit of the daemon.json file, you must restart the daemon or reload its configuration.

• To send the telemetry, verify that dockerd is able to resolve api.segment.io and create a TCP (HTTPS) connection on port 443.
