Dear Supporters, My system is running PMM 1.17.4. I have problem with add external service on many target at the same time. I deployed clickhouse\_exporter , and add external service from pmm client. It worked perfectly. My deploy progress: 1/ Compile clickhouse\_exporter with Go lang on this link without change any parameter: [GitHub - flant/clickhouse\_exporter: Image for Percona-Lab/clickhouse\_exporter](https://github.com/flant/clickhouse_exporter) 2/ Execute exporter on the client : ./clickhouse\_exporter -scrape\_uri=[http://hostname:8123/](http://hostname:8123/) & 3/ Add external service: pmm-admin add external:service clickhouse --service-port=9116 After that, i tried to deploy with the same progress on another hosts but i could only add 1 target, the new target replaced old one. I read this note : [External Services - Percona Monitoring and Management](https://www.percona.com/doc/percona-monitoring-and-management/2.x/setting-up/client/external.html) I see the part can gather all target which same services into 1 group. But this note for pmm2.x. So I could not apply it. Could you please support me solve this problem ? ---

Hi Khue, Did you specify different service names or it was clickhouse on all hosts? e.g. $ pmm-admin add external:service --service-port=9116 clickhouse $ pmm-admin add external:service --service-port=9116 clickhouse2 ---

Dear Adivinho, Thank you for your quickly response. I did as your suggestion. It worked ![pmm-support01](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/percona1/original/2X/5/5299d09f1eb1de4d491167ec587bda06dab08126.png) But I really want add many target into only one job name as below. I did it by editing manually the /etc/prometheus.yml . Could you give me the command line (pmm-admin) for adding target without editing like that ? ![pmm-support02](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/percona1/original/2X/5/5e72b50a76ea3223a256a41d9b94273ea05a9f33.png) Thank you for your supporting ! ---
