[prometheus-users] Re: drop all some metrics based on regex
Thanks. I always forget that labels starting with __ are automatically dropped after target relabelling, but not metric relabelling.

[prometheus-users] Re: drop all some metrics based on regex
The other way you can do this is with the "__tmp_keep" pattern. This is where you positively tag the metrics you want to keep, and then use a drop that matches that temporary label doesn't exist. metric_relabel_configs: - source_labels: [__name__, name] regex: 'node_systemd_.*;(ssh|apache).*' target_label: __tmp_keep replacement: yes - source_labels: [__tmp_keep,__name__] regex: ';node_systemd_.*' action: drop - regex: __tmp_keep action: labeldrop On Monday, March 11, 2024 at 9:43:27 PM UTC+1 mel wrote: > You are absolutely correct but I don't have access to a lot of the servers > so I am trying to drop them on the prometheus side > > On Monday, March 11, 2024 at 1:39:18 PM UTC-7 Ben Kochie wrote: > >> relabel actions are exclusive.

[prometheus-users] Re: drop all some metrics based on regex
You can use temporary variables. Something like this (untested): metric_relabel_configs: - source_labels: [__name__, name] regex: 'node_systemd_unit_state;(ssh|apache).*' target_label: __tmp_keep replacement: y - source_labels: [__name__, __tmp_keep] regex: 'node_systemd_unit_state;' action: drop On Monday 11 March 2024 at 20:43:27 UTC mel wrote: > You are absolutely correct but I don't have access to a lot of the servers > so I am trying to drop them on the prometheus side > > On Monday, March 11, 2024 at 1:39:18 PM UTC-7 Ben Kochie wrote: > >> relabel actions are exclusive.

You are absolutely correct but I don't have access to a lot of the servers so I am trying to drop them on the prometheus side On Monday, March 11, 2024 at 1:39:18 PM UTC-7 Ben Kochie wrote: > relabel actions are exclusive.

[prometheus-users] Re: drop all some metrics based on regex
relabel actions are exclusive. Drop means keep everything but X. Keep means drop everything but X. For your exact problem, there is already a node_exporter flag to handle this. ./node_exporter --collector.systemd.unit-include="(ssh|apache)" This will also be more efficient because it it will only gather data about those two units.
