I'd say it's better to run your elasticsearch exporter at whatever interval makes sense - say once every 30 minutes as you are now - but scrape that value every 2 minutes.
The simplest approach is to run a cronjob every 30 minutes, and write the results to a file for node_exporter's textfile collector. Or you can send the results to pushgateway. There are a number of advantages to this - in particular, you can safely scrape from multiple prometheus servers without generating additional load on your elasticsearch node. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Prometheus Users" group.
