### Release Notes
|
||||
- **Breaking Change**: docker plugin tags. The cont_id tag no longer exists, it
|
||||
will now be a field, and be called container_id. Additionally, cont_image and
|
||||
cont_name are being renamed to container_image and container_name.
|
||||
- **Breaking Change**: docker plugin measurements. The `docker_cpu`, `docker_mem`,
|
||||
and `docker_net` measurements are being renamed to `docker_container_cpu`,
|
||||
`docker_container_mem`, and `docker_container_net`. Why? Because these metrics are
|
||||
specifically tracking per-container stats. The problem with per-container stats,
|
||||
in some use-cases, is that if containers are short-lived AND names are not
|
||||
kept consistent, then the series cardinality will balloon very quickly.
|
||||
So adding "container" to each metric will:
|
||||
(1) make it more clear that these metrics are per-container, and
|
||||
(2) allow users to easily drop per-container metrics if cardinality is an
|
||||
issue (`namedrop = ["docker_container_*"]`)
|
||||
- `tagexclude` and `tagexclude` are now available, which can be used to remove
|
||||
tags from measurements on inputs and outputs. See

||||
