          - title: 'Enable the hpssa collector'
            description: |
              The `hpssa` collector is disabled by default. To enable it, use `edit-config` from the Netdata [config directory](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/docs/configure/nodes.md), which is typically at `/etc/netdata`, to edit the `python.d.conf` file.

              ```bash
              cd /etc/netdata   # Replace this path with your Netdata config directory, if different
              sudo ./edit-config python.d.conf
              ```

              Change the value of the `hpssa` setting to `yes`. Save the file and restart the Netdata Agent with `sudo systemctl restart netdata`, or the [appropriate method](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/docs/configure/start-stop-restart.md) for your system.
          - title: 'Allow user netdata to execute `ssacli` as root.'
            description: |
              This module uses `ssacli`, which can only be executed by root. It uses `sudo` and assumes that it is configured such that the `netdata` user can execute `ssacli` as root without a password.
              
              - Add to your `/etc/sudoers` file:
              
              `which ssacli` shows the full path to the binary.
              
              ```bash
              netdata ALL=(root)       NOPASSWD: /path/to/ssacli
              ```
              
              - Reset Netdata's systemd
                unit [CapabilityBoundingSet](https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd.exec.html#Capabilities) (Linux
                distributions with systemd)
              
              The default CapabilityBoundingSet doesn't allow using `sudo`, and is quite strict in general. Resetting is not optimal, but a next-best solution given the inability to execute `ssacli` using `sudo`.
              
              As the `root` user, do the following:
              
              ```cmd
              mkdir /etc/systemd/system/netdata.service.d
              echo -e '[Service]\nCapabilityBoundingSet=~' | tee /etc/systemd/system/netdata.service.d/unset-capability-bounding-set.conf
              systemctl daemon-reload
              systemctl restart netdata.service
              ```

            There are 2 sections:
            
            * Global variables
            * One or more JOBS that can define multiple different instances to monitor.
            
            The following options can be defined globally: priority, penalty, autodetection_retry, update_every, but can also be defined per JOB to override the global values.
            
            Additionally, the following collapsed table contains all the options that can be configured inside a JOB definition.
            
            Every configuration JOB starts with a `job_name` value which will appear in the dashboard, unless a `name` parameter is specified.
