Telemetry#

You can set MKE 4 to automatically record and transmit data to Mirantis through an encrypted channel for monitoring and analysis purposes. This data helps the Mirantis Customer Success Organization to better understand how customers use MKE. It also provides product usage statistics, which is key feedback that helps product teams in their efforts to enhance Mirantis products and services.

Info

The MKE 4 telemetry enablement setting is automatically applied to the k0s configuration.

Info

Telemetry is automatically enabled for MKE 4 clusters that are running without a license, with a license that has expired, or with an invalid license. In all of such scenarios, you can only disable telemetry once a valid license has been applied to the cluster.

Enable telemetry through the MKE 4 CLI (mkectl)#

  1. Access the mke4.yaml configuration file.

  2. Set the spec.tracking.enabled field to true.

    spec:
  tracking:
    enabled: true
    clusterLabel: <optional-label-to-include-with-analytics>

  3. Run the mkectl apply command to apply the new settings.

After a few moments, the change will reconcile in the configuration. From this point onward, MKE 4 will transmit key usage data to Mirantis by way of a secure Segment endpoint.

Enable telemetry through the MKE 4 Dashboard#

  1. Log in to the MKE 4 Dashboard as an administrator.

  2. Click Admin Settings to display the available options.

  3. Click Telemetry to call the Telemetry screen.

  4. Click Enable Telemetry.

  5. Click Save.
