+Monitoring
+----------
+
+Nodepool provides monitoring information to statsd. See
+:ref:`statsd_configuration` to learn how to enable statsd support. Currently,
+these metrics are supported:
+
+Nodepool builder
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+.. zuul:stat:: nodepool.dib_image_build.<diskimage_name>.<ext>.size
+   :type: gauge
+
+   This stat reports the size of the built image in bytes.
+
+.. zuul:stat:: nodepool.image_update.<image name>.<provider name>
+   :type: counter, timer
+
+   Number of image uploads to a specific provider in the cloud plus the time in

+
+.. _nodepool_nodes:
+
+.. zuul:stat:: nodepool.nodes.<state>
+  :type: counter
+
+   Number of nodes in a specific state.
+
+   state can be:
+
+   * building
+   * deleting

+   * ready
+   * used
+
+.. zuul:stat:: nodepool.provider.<provider>.nodes.<state>
+   :type: gauge
+
+   Number of nodes per provider that are in one specific state. See
+   :ref:`nodepool.nodes <nodepool_nodes>` for a list of possible states.
+
+.. zuul:stat:: nodepool.label.<label>.nodes.<state>
+   :type: counter
+
+   Number of nodes with a specific label in a specific state. See
