Description

There is currently an ongoing effort to support specifying the RKE2/K3s data-dir argument, which allows a user to change it from the default of /var/lib/rancher/rke2 & /var/lib/rancher/k3s respectively, to a user provided directory.

Research direction

Start by reading hack/collector-longhorn and hack/collector-harvester, especially the lines linked in the issue, and compare their hardcoded RKE2/K3s data directories with the API changes referenced in the Rancher draft PR. Done means the affected collectors support user-provided data directories rather than assuming the defaults; check the repository's existing validation afterward.
