This document will guide you through installing the open-source Netdata monitoring Agent on Linux, Docker, Kubernetes, and many others, often with one command.
+Netdata is very flexible and can be used to monitor all kinds of infrastructure. Read more about possible [Deployment strategies](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/docs/category-overview-pages/deployment-strategies.md) to understand what better suites your needs.

+## Control runtime behavior of the updater script.
+
+Starting with v1.40.0, the `netdata-updater.sh` script supports a config file called `netdata-updater.conf`,
+located in the same directory as the main `netdata.conf` file. This file uses POSIX shell script syntax to define
+variables that are used by the updater.
+
+This configuration file can be edited [using our `edit-config`
+script](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/docs/configure/nodes.md).
+
+The following configuration options are currently supported:
+
+- `NETDATA_UPDATER_JITTER`: Sets an upper limit in seconds on the random delay in the updater script when running
+ as a scheduled task. This random delay helps avoid issues resulting from too many nodes trying to reconnect to
+ the Cloud at the same time. The default value is 3600, which corresponds to one hour. Most users should not ever
+ need to change this.
