Hi Stuart,

sorry for the late reply, i was on vacation.
I will check the recording rule.
The reduction was same for both recorded metric vs original metric.
can you correct my understanding?
After the rule is evaluated, will the type of metric be treated as
Gauge?


If the metric reduced (and it isn't a counter reset) then it suggest it isn't a counter, and therefore rate() shouldn't be used.

Thanks n Regards,

The graph showed a reduction at various points. Is there a bug in
the recording rule calculation that can cause reduction which needs
fixing?

Hi ,
Thanks for the response. When we a recording rule, what will be the
metric type of this derived counter?. In the increase function
documentation it was mentioned that
increase(v range-vector) calculates the increase in the time series
in the range vector. Breaks in monotonicity (such as counter resets
due to target restarts) are automatically adjusted for.

Also why it worked on the original metric as on both dervied and
original metric has reduction?

Thanks n Regards,
Chalapathi

Counters must only increase. Any reduction is seen as a counter
reset.

If this isn't a counter use the derivative function rather than rate

Hi,

In our application, there is one metric that we are deriving from
another metric using recording rules.
When we plot the graphs of recording metric and the original metric
in grafana, we see the graph to follow the same trend. But when we
applied increase , then we have seen recording metric is having huge
spikes, whereas original metric is not having these spikes.

following is the plotted graph:

The bottom panels show the increase of both these  metrics over
time. As you can see, there are points where the metric values goes
down. Prometheus handles these as resets for metric type
“Counter”, and the increase function handles it gracefully.

Can you let us know how these recording metrics are treated in
prometheus? and any pointers on how to debug this issue.

Thanks n Regards,
Chalapathi.
