Instead of stopping nodes, setting the enabled:false flag  
([http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/en/marvel/current/index.html#\_the\_monitoring\_cluster](http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/en/marvel/current/index.html#_the_monitoring_cluster))  
is there a way to do this on the fly and have marvel stop  
collecting/sending data?

seeing if there is a way to do this without having to restart nodes if we  
think there are any issues in production.  
thx

since we do not have it all setup yet, just wondering if you can do this  
"marvel.agent.enabled"  
on the fly like other configs, or if it is only a restart node option

You can only apply these settings via a restart unfortunately.
