Could we make socketDir configurable

[wengyao04]

Hi, could we make socketDir configurable ? The default kubelet socket dir is /var/lib/kubelet/pod-resources . However, we configure kubelet in a different directory.

We can set up a symbolic link to point to our pod-resources directory, but it would be nice to let users configure the kubelet socket dir ?

Thanks

Hi @rnertney Thank you ! We want to contribute this change. Could we attend the community meeting and is there a slack channel we can join ?

BTW: what's the release cycle of dcgm-exporter ?

The process for contributing is documented here: https://github.com/NVIDIA/dcgm-exporter/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md (no meetings or slack channel). Releases usually follow DCGM itself, every few months, but exceptions are made when needed.
