  # scrape_timeout is set to the global default (10s).
# A scrape configuration containing exactly one endpoint to scrape:
# Here it's Prometheus itself.
scrape_configs:
  # The job name is added as a label `job=<job_name>` to any timeseries scraped from this config.
  #- job_name: 'prometheus'
  #  # metrics_path defaults to '/metrics'
  #  # scheme defaults to 'http'.
  #  static_configs:
  #  - targets: ['localhost:9090']
  - job_name: 'mz'
    static_configs:
    - targets: ['localhost:8888'] # port defined in the topo STR config
      labels:
        pico: 'platform'
    - targets: ['localhost:9090'] # port defined in the topo STR config
      labels:
        pico: 'ec1'
