+External Metric Server
+----------------------
+
+Proxmox Backup Server periodically sends various metrics about your host's memory,
+network and disk activity to configured external metric servers.
+
+Currently supported are:
+
+ * InfluxDB (HTTP) (see https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/v2/ )
+ * InfluxDB (UDP) (see https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/v1/ )
+
+The external metric server definitions are saved in
+'/etc/proxmox-backup/metricserver.cfg', and can be edited through the web
+interface.
+
+.. note::
+
+ Using HTTP is recommended as UDP support has been dropped in InfluxDB v2.
+
+InfluxDB (HTTP) plugin configuration
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+The plugin can be configured to use the HTTP(s) API of InfluxDB 2.x.
+InfluxDB 1.8.x does contain a forwards compatible API endpoint for this v2 API.
+
+Since InfluxDB's v2 API is only available with authentication, you have
+to generate a token that can write into the correct bucket and set it.
+
+In the v2 compatible API of 1.8.x, you can use 'user:password' as token
+(if required), and can omit the 'organization' since that has no meaning in InfluxDB 1.x.
+
+You can also set the maximum batch size (default 25000000 bytes) with the
+'max-body-size' setting (this corresponds to the InfluxDB setting with the
+same name).
+
+InfluxDB (UDP) plugin configuration
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Proxmox Backup Server can also send data via UDP. This requires the InfluxDB
+server to be configured correctly. The MTU can also be configured here if
+necessary.
+
+Here is an example configuration for InfluxDB (on your InfluxDB server):
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+ [[udp]]
+ enabled = true
+ bind-address = "0.0.0.0:8089"
+ database = "proxmox"
+ batch-size = 1000
+ batch-timeout = "1s"
+
+With this configuration, the InfluxDB server listens on all IP addresses on
+port 8089, and writes the data in the *proxmox* database.
