You cannot access context information in the metric reporter itself /in a nice way/. You can wait for the first metric to be registered, and then extract arbitrary metric variables from the metric group.

1) Yes, the metrics reporter was instantiated per task manager, you could refer to [1] to confirm.

2) You could get your runtime context by calling #getRuntimeContext() in RichFunction. And you could get your metric group within runtimeContext then. The task manager name could be found by #getAllVariables() within MetricGroup.

*Subject:* Apache Flink - Question about metric registry and reporter and context information
Hi:

I wanted to find if the metric reporter and registry are instantiated per task manager (which is a single JVM process) or per slot. I believe it per task manager (JVM process) but just wanted to confirm.

Also, is there a way to access context information (eg: task manager name etc) in the metric reporter or registry just like in the rich function open method ?

Thanks
