The Metric Setup provides a quick overview of the installed agents and metrics being submitted to your account. It will aid you in setting up everything you need to start sending custom metrics to your Blue Matador account.

Agents

The agents tab displays all of the installed agents in your account and shows which agents have the StatsD listener enabled (the service that listens for custom metrics).

Clicking on an agent tile will show more information relative to that agent.

For instructions on setting up your agents to listen for custom metrics, click the Enable StatsD button.
