Investigate autoscaling failover metric routing: autoscaling.failover.enabled and autoscaling.failover.metrics. #1684

Description

@jszwedko

Problem

The core agent supports Kubernetes workload autoscaling failover routing through the Cluster Agent, controlled by:

  • autoscaling.failover.enabled — enables the autoscaling failover metric path
  • autoscaling.failover.metrics — allowlist of metric names forwarded to the Cluster Agent for autoscaling

These keys route specific metrics through the Cluster Agent rather than the standard intake. ADP currently has no equivalent routing path.

What needs to happen

Determine whether ADP is expected to participate in autoscaling metric routing. If this is handled entirely by the core agent and ADP only needs to forward metrics to standard intake, document these as Not Planned with that explanation. If ADP should eventually route metrics to the Cluster Agent for autoscaling, identify the architectural changes needed.
