User Facing Changes

🛑 Breaking changes 🛑

  • jaegerreceiver: Deprecate remote_sampling config in the jaeger receiver (#24186)
    The jaeger receiver will fail to start if remote_sampling config is specified in it. The receiver.jaeger.DisableRemoteSampling feature gate can be set to let the receiver start and treat remote_sampling config as no-op. In a future version this feature gate will be removed and the receiver will always fail when remote_sampling config is specified.

  • googlecloudexporter: remove retry_on_failure from the googlecloud exporter. The exporter itself handles retries, and retrying can cause issues. (#57233)

  • vcenterreceiver: Dimensions performance metrics into metric attribute object (#25147)
    The following metrics have been effected to include the new metric attribute to properly dimension the data.vcenter.vm.network.throughput,vcenter.vm.network.usage,vcenter.vm.network.packet.count,vcenter.vm.disk.latency.avg,vcenter.vm.disk.latency.max,vcenter.host.network.usage,vcenter.host.network.throughput,vcenter.host.network.packet.count,vcenter.host.network.packet.errors,
    vcenter.host.disk.latency.avg,vcenter.host.disk.latency.max, and vcenter.host.disk.throughput. More information on how to migrate can be found at https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-collector-contrib/tree/main/receiver/vcenterreceiver#feature-gates
