Github user ptgoetz commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/storm/pull/2203 @revans2 Added rudimentary sanity check validation for metrics reporters configs. Because reporter implementations may want to have their own custom config keys, we can't really cover everything. I think we'll have to settle on basic sanity checks + reporters documenting the custom configuration fields they expose. I'll think more about metrics naming and metadata. Like I said, feedback, opinions and pull requests against this branch are more than welcome.
