Fixed In Version:
Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
Cause: HAProxy is reloaded when the router changes the configuration file Consequence: Some counter prometheus metrics were decreasing across reloads which explicitly violates the definition of a counter metric. Fix: Have the router reload metrics code note the time of the last metrics scrape, to avoid scraping beyond the preserved counter values during a reload Result: Counter metrics do not see a sudden increase followed by a decrease when the router is reloading.

Comment 3 Arvind iyengar 2020-10-27 05:14:09 UTC
Verified in "4.5.0-0.nightly-2020-10-22-231534" release version. With this payload, it is noted that the metric counters continue to increase or resets to zero during reload conditions but no decrements.
