Thanks Ittay. Hmmm, I can only imagine two reasons:
1. Prometheus hasn't scraped yet, so you are seeing some older values than if you look directly at /metrics. 2. Prometheus scrapes another target than you are looking at. Maybe something with service discovery is going wrong. Could you use the Prometheus UI on port 9090 to check that the target is as expected, and when the last scrape to your target happened?
