Fixed In Version: | Doc Type: | Bug Fix | |
Doc Text: |
Cause: the mountstats collector of the node-exporter daemonset was enabled.
Consequence: nodes with NFS mount points expose mountstat metrics with high cardinality which induce high memory usage of Prometheus.
Fix: the mountstats collector is disabled.
Result: the mountstat metrics aren't exposed anymore by node-exporter which reduces the number of metrics stored by Prometheus.
