How to exclude /actuator/health endpoint span

[alvin562]

We have a java service that we automatically instrumented with opentelemetry and everythings worked pretty well. However, one issue we have is we are seeing a lot of spans to /actuator/health endpoint (essentially a health check from our ELB) coming from the tomcat-7.0 library. Does the java instrumentation provide any way we can exclude these spans from being emitted?

We tried looking into specific properties/env variables but couldn't find anything. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
