Fleet Management
Fleet Management provides a central place to track and manage OpenTelemetry agents running in your environment. It uses the Open Agent Management Protocol (OpAMP) so you can monitor, configure, and troubleshoot agents at scale - remotely and securely.
Why Fleet Management matters
Managing a small number of agents is straightforward. As your agent count grows, maintaining versions, fixing issues, updating configurations, and keeping agents available becomes more complex. Agents are a core part of your telemetry pipeline, so keeping them healthy is important for observing your workloads.
Fleet Management helps you track, update, and maintain your agents. You can roll out changes, apply fixes, and focus on supporting your production systems instead of handling individual agent updates.
Fleet Management includes a full configuration management system. Using configuration groups and configuration families, you can define configuration once, version it automatically, preview which agents it affects, roll out changes safely, and track per-agent status across your fleet. Configuration groups contain the complete version history of a configuration, while configuration families allow you to deploy multiple interdependent components—such as agents, gateways, and cluster collectors—together. See Configuration Management for more details.
Use Fleet Management to:
- Monitor agent health, connectivity, and performance across your fleet.
- Maintain consistent configuration using configuration groups and families, with full version history for audit and comparison.
- Monitor agent resource usage to understand impact on workloads and reduce the Noisy Neighbour effect.
- View where agents run to confirm deployment coverage, ensuring all required hosts, clusters, and services are instrumented.
- Track agent versions across your fleet and identify outdated or inconsistent deployments.
Get started
Fleet Management supports two types of functionality:
1. Agent catalog (read-only)
Provides visibility into agent health, version, resource usage, and coverage.
This part of Fleet Management becomes available automatically when installing supported integrations.
2. Remote configuration (Configurations tab)
Allows you to create, version, and deploy remote configurations to agents using the Configurations tab.
Remote configuration requires Supervisor-enabled agents, which is a separate setup path from the standard integration.
UI setup (Agent catalog)
To enable read-only Fleet Management capabilities (agent visibility, status, and metadata), install one or both of the following:
- Kubernetes Complete Observability
- AWS ECS-EC2 OTel integration
- Host (Linux, Windows) - Coming soon
These integrations send agent metadata and status to Fleet Manager, allowing you to explore the Agent catalog.
Remote configuration setup (Configurations)
To enable the Configurations tab for remote configuration management, you must deploy agents with Supervisor enabled.
Supported integrations:
- Kubernetes (available today) - For detailed instructions, see the Enable Fleet Management for Kubernetes OpenTelemetry Collectors guide.
- AWS ECS EC2 (coming soon)
- Linux and Windows hosts (coming soon)
Explore your fleet in Coralogix
Use Fleet Management to understand the state of your agents, identify issues quickly, and ensure complete coverage across your environment. To explore your fleet, go to Integrations, then Fleet Management.
The Agents tab provides a unified view of every agent reporting to Coralogix. It shows each agent’s status, version, operating system, pipelines, cluster, service context, and resource usage. You can group agents by attributes, compare versions across environments, and identify gaps in deployment coverage. You can also drill down into individual agents to investigate performance, connection status, and the deployment environment, helping you pinpoint issues and verify that instrumentation is working as expected. The catalog highlights top CPU and memory consumers so you can investigate noisy agents and assess workload impact.
See the Agent Management page to learn more about interpreting agent details, filtering the catalog, and using agent attributes for troubleshooting and fleet-wide management.
Explore and manage configurations
Use the Configurations tab to define, version, and deploy remote configurations for Supervisor-enabled agents. The tab displays all configuration groups, each with its full version history, status, and the agents affected. You can review configuration details, preview which agents match a configuration before activation, and drill down into specific versions to investigate rollout progress or failures.
Configuration groups show whether a version is active, applying, inactive, or failed, helping you validate changes and maintain consistency across your fleet. Configuration families let you deploy interdependent components—such as agents and gateways—together to keep your pipelines aligned. Built-in diffs and safety checks support safe rollouts, version comparison, and controlled activation.
