OpenTelemetry collector configurations disabled via "Do not apply this configuration" in the General Properties remained active, and their pipelines appeared in the generated collector output. This caused the data collection pipelines to continue running despite being disabled, potentially leading to unnecessary monitoring and resource usage.
Disabled configurations are now correctly excluded from the generated collector output. As a result, no data is collected or processed from these configurations once they are disabled. Users do not need to take any action for this change to take effect.
