This has been bothering me for a while, and hopefully someone has a 
solution I am simply overlooking.

I use snmp_exporter to pull power metrics from a bunch of different PDU 
vendors (APC, Raritan, Geist, ServerTech, etc).  I have one Prometheus 
scrape job & module per vendor to store all the PDU total power data in a 
metric named pduInputPowerConsumption

All of these vendors report the power in Watts, except for APC - which 
reports in " hundredths of kilowatts (decawatts)"

So throughout all my Grafana dashboards where I have to aggregate the total 
power consumption from all the different PDU vendors I currently just 
multiply the APC metrics by 10 to convert to watts like the other PDUs.

sum(pduInputPowerConsumption{job="apc_pdus"}*10 OR on() vector(0))
+
sum(pduInputPowerConsumption{job*!=*"apc_pdus"} OR on() vector(0))


Is there a way that I can just scale *10 the apc_pdu collected metric on 
the prometheus backend via the prometheus.yml scrape config along with 
my relabel_configs or metric_relabel_configs?
Is there something else I am blatantly overlooking?




# Scrape config for snmp_exporter polling APC PDU power metric

  - job_name: 'apc_pdus'
    scrape_interval: 3m   # Set the SNMP scrape inverval for every 3 mins
    scrape_timeout:  45s  # Set the scrape timeout to 45 seconds (3 retries 
= 2.25 mins)
    metrics_path: /snmp
    params:
      module: [apc_pdus]
    file_sd_configs:
      - files:
        - /etc/prometheus/snmp-targets/apc_pdus_*.json
        # Attempt to re-read files every five minutes.
        refresh_interval: 5m
    relabel_configs:
      - source_labels: [__meta_filepath]
        regex: '.*_(\w{4})\.json'
        replacement: $1
