+## Getting rid of exporter error messages
+
+In case you are using this agent without needing to use any OpenTelemetry exporters you can add
+the following environment variables to turn off exporters and stop seeing error messages about 
+servers not being reachable in the logs.
+
+Example log message:
+```
+ERROR io.opentelemetry.exporter.internal.grpc.OkHttpGrpcExporter - Failed to export spans. The request could not be executed. Full error message: Failed to connect to localhost/[0:0:0:0:0:0:0:1]:4317

+### Traces
+
+To turn off exporting of traces you can set `OTEL_TRACES_EXPORTER=none`
+see [OpenTelemetry GitHub](https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-java/tree/main/sdk-extensions/autoconfigure#otlp-exporter-span-metric-and-log-exporters)
