Description

I am using the SignalFx/Splunk OpenTelemetry (OTel) Collector and I am unable to see the metric k8s.pod.status_reason.

I have installed the splunk-otel-collector-agent and integrated it with my Splunk instance. I can see all other metrics such as k8s.pod.phase, k8s.pod.cpu.utilization, etc., but k8s.pod.status_reason is missing.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Install the splunk-otel-collector-agent.
2. Integrate the collector with Splunk.
3. Monitor Kubernetes pod metrics.

Expected Result

The metric k8s.pod.status_reason should be visible along with other Kubernetes pod metrics.

Actual Result

The metric k8s.pod.status_reason is not visible, while other metrics like k8s.pod.phase and k8s.pod.cpu.utilization are visible.

Collector version

0.111.0
