Assign Port on fly for jmx_exporter for exporting kafka metrics

[Tushar Goyal]

Hi, 

We are using JMX_exporter to export metrics to Prometheus.

Multiple connector could be residing on workers in same host. So it is not possible to assign port in static config. So we need to have metrics for different connectors on different ports clearly. 

 My question is: whether it is possible to dynamically:

1. Configure the JMX port on which the JMX_exporter is listening on the fly
2. Configure the port on which JMX_exporter is exposing metrics on the fly
   
   

Please point me to related discussions on this and possible workarounds. 

Thanks,
Tushar Goyal

Tushar,

By connector are referring to Kafka Connect?
