14.7. Exposing downward metrics for virtual machines

Procedure

1. Open the HyperConverged custom resource (CR) in your default editor by running the following command:

   $ oc edit hyperconverged kubevirt-hyperconverged -n openshift-cnv

2. Choose to enable or disable the downwardMetrics feature gate as follows:

   • To enable the downwardMetrics feature gate, add and then set spec.featureGates.downwardMetrics to true. For example:

     apiVersion: hco.kubevirt.io/v1beta1
     kind: HyperConverged
     metadata:
       name: kubevirt-hyperconverged
       namespace: openshift-cnv
     spec:
         featureGates:
           downwardMetrics: true
     # ...

   • To disable the downwardMetrics feature gate, set spec.featureGates.downwardMetrics to false. For example:

     apiVersion: hco.kubevirt.io/v1beta1
     kind: HyperConverged
     metadata:
       name: kubevirt-hyperconverged
       namespace: openshift-cnv
     spec:
         featureGates:
           downwardMetrics: false
     # ...
