## Windows worker nodes support

Splunk OpenTelemetry Collector for Kubernetes supports collection of metrics,
traces and logs (using OTel native logs collection only) from Windows nodes.

All windows images are available in a separate `quay.io` repository:
`quay.io/signalfx/splunk-otel-collector-windows`.

Use the following values.yaml configuration to install the helm chart on Windows
worker nodes:

```yaml
isWindows: true
image:
otelcol:
repository: quay.io/signalfx/splunk-otel-collector-windows
logsEngine: otel
readinessProbe:
initialDelaySeconds: 60
livenessProbe:
initialDelaySeconds: 60
```

If you have both Windows and Linux worker nodes in your Kubernetes cluster, you
need to install the helm chart twice. One of the installations with default
configuration `isWindows: false` will be applied on Linux nodes. Another
installation with values.yaml configuration that provided above will be applied
on Windows nodes. And it's important to disable `clusterReceiver` on one of the
installations to avoid cluster-wide metrics duplication, add the following line
to values.yaml of one of the installations:

```yaml
clusterReceiver:
enabled: false
```

## Deploy for k8s cluster with windows worker node.

This configuration will install application for windows worker node only.

All windows images are available in a separate `quay.io` repository: `quay.io/signalfx/splunk-otel-collector-windows`.

Logs collection on Windows is only available using OTel native logs collection. Fluentd log engine is not supported.

```yaml
image:
otelcol:
repository: quay.io/signalfx/splunk-otel-collector-windows
readinessProbe:
initialDelaySeconds: 60
livenessProbe:
initialDelaySeconds: 60
isWindows: true
