Hello, Metrics are not saved when I put a timestamps with metrics. I've got through github issue and some of prometheus codes but not yet getting the root cause.
I would be happy if I can get why I'm getting below errors. Errors *Error 1* I got below error when executing prometheus with prometheus.yml (v1). Please see blow for the prometheus.yml (v1). prometheus_1 | level=warn ts=2020-05-25T12:29:17.216Z caller=scrape.go:1240 component="scrape manager" scrape_pool=my-app target=https://<internal server address>:443/metrics msg="Error on ingesting samples that are too old or are too far into the future" num_dropped=600 *Error2* I got massive amount of below log when running prometheus with prometheus.yml (v2).

The batch job is executed in every 5 min, so the timestamp will not be older than 5 min compared to the current timestamp. Here is an example of exposed data. There are about 600 lines in real data. #HELP processed_rows_total the total number of processed rows #TYPE processed_rows_total counter processed_rows_total{stream_name="a", result="success"} 93163 1590422899 processed_rows_total{stream_name="a", result="error"} 0 1590422899 processed_rows_total{stream_name="b", result="success"} 45695851 1590422899 processed_rows_total{stream_name="b", result="error"} 0 1590422899 Environment Running with docker. docker-compose.yml prometheus: image: prom/prometheus:v2.17.2 entrypoint: - "/bin/prometheus" - "--log.level=debug" - "--config.file=/etc/prometheus/prometheus.yml" - "--storage.tsdb.path=/prometheus" - "--web.console.libraries=/usr/share/prometheus/console_libraries" - "--web.console.templates=/usr/share/prometheus/consoles" volumes: - ./prometheus.yml:/etc/prometheus/prometheus.yml ports: - "127.0.0.1:9090:9090" prometheus.yml (v1) # my global config global: scrape_interval: 15s # Set the scrape interval to every 15 seconds.
