For example:\r\n\r\n```\r\n[monitor]\r\n  store-enabled = true\r\n  // exclude shard and tsm1_filestore metrics from being collected\r\n  exclude = [ \"shard\", \"tsm1_filestore\" ]\r\n```\r\n\r\n__Use case:__\r\n\r\nWith v1.1 release a number of new metrics were added to the monitoring collection. These are usually very helpful for development and debugging, however there are some large-volume measurements that might want to be excluded based on instance size or environment."}}
