## Supported Telemetry

![Metrics](https://img.shields.io/badge/metrics-alpha-green)

## Overview

## Configuration

The following settings are required:

* `endpoint` (default: `http://127.0.0.0:9490/metrics/array`): The URL of the scraper selected endpoint.
* `fa_array_name` (no default): The array's pretty name to be used as a metrics label.
* `namespace` (default:purefa): The selected Pure Storage OpenMetrics Namespace to query.

In the below examples array01 is using the [Pure Storage FlashArray OpenMetrics exporter](https://github.com/PureStorage-OpenConnect/pure-fa-openmetrics-exporter), while array02 is using the native on-box metrics provided in Purity//FA v6.6.11+.
