Hello. I use prometheus + snmp_exporter to monitor network swithes(D-Link 
and Huawei) with snmp.
I have an issue with huawei switches - some of them can't give ports 
utilization and i have to calculate it manualy.
As i know prometheus can't setup per job data retention(Is it rigth?), and 
i decided to start another one prometheus server which will collect 
IfInOctets/IfOutOctets every 5 seconds, and calculate utilization, when 
first server will scrape second server.
I dont need to keep IfInOctets/IfOutOctets too long,and i decided setup 
storage.tsdb.min-block-duration to 30 m and storage.tsdb.retention.time to 
1d.
So, the questions are:
Is it right way?
What difference between storage.tsdb.min-block-duration and 
storage.tsdb.max-block-duration?
Will prometheus calculate utilization for metrics which still in memory?
