== Pausing Data Collection
To stop generating {monitoring} data in {es}, disable data collection:
[source,yaml]
---------------------------------------------------
xpack.monitoring.collection.enabled: false
---------------------------------------------------
When this setting is `false`, {es} monitoring data is not collected and all
monitoring data from other sources such as {kib}, Beats, and Logstash is ignored.
You can update this setting by using the
{ref}/cluster-update-settings.html[Cluster Update Settings API].
If you want to separately disable a specific exporter, you can specify the
`enabled` setting (which defaults to `true`) per exporter. For example:
[source,yaml]
---------------------------------------------------
xpack.monitoring.exporters.my_http_exporter:
type: http
host: ["10.1.2.3:9200", "10.1.2.4:9200"]
enabled: false <1>
---------------------------------------------------
<1> Disable the named exporter. If the same name as an existing exporter is not
used, then this will create a completely new exporter that is completely
ignored. This value can be set dynamically by using cluster settings.
NOTE: Defining a disabled exporter prevents the default exporter from being
created.
To re-start data collection, re-enable these settings.
