Metric labels

Labels are metadata or attributes, and there are a few sources of metric labels. In the following tables, see the sources of labels and when they are added:

Label	Description	Example
`prometheus_server`	Name of the Prometheus instance that scraped the metric. When you install it in Kubernetes, it's the name of the pod.	`prometheus_server: newrelic-prometheus-agent-0`
`instance`	Host and Port of the scraped target.	`instance: 172.17.0.5:8083`
`job`	Name of the scrape job that discovered the target.	`job: kubernetes-job-pod`
`instrumentation.name`	Name of the New Relic instrumentation.	`instrumentation.name: remote-write`
`instrumentation.provider`	Name of the New Relic instrumentation provider.	`instrumentation.provider: prometheus`
`instrumentation.source`	It matches the name in `prometheus_server`.	`instrumentation.source: newrelic-prometheus-agent-0`
`instrumentation.version`	Version of the New Relic remote-write endpoint API.	`instrumentation.version: 0.0.2`
`newrelic.source`	Name of the New Relic instrumentation source.	`newrelic.source: prometheusAPI`

Kind	Label	Description	Example
Pod/Endpoints	`cluster_name`	Name of the cluster defined on installation.	`cluster_name: my-cluster`
Pod/Endpoints	`namespace`	Namespace of the target.	`namespace: default`
Pod/Endpoints	`pod`	Name of the pod.	`pod: my-pod`
Pod/Endpoints	`node`	Name of the node where the pod or the endpoints are running.	`node: minikube`
Endpoints	`service`	Name of the endpoints service.	`service: my-service`
Endpoints	`YOUR_SERVICE_LABELS`	The Kubernetes labels of the endpoints service.	`k8s_io_service: MyService`
Pod	`YOUR_POD_LABELS`	The Kubernetes labels of the pod.	`k8s_io_app: MyApp`

중요

To comply with the Prometheus DataModel, Kubernetes label names are sanitized after scraped to replace any unsupported character to _. For example, the Kubernetes label k8s.io/app is added as k8s_io_app. Label values aren't modified.

Generated metrics

팁

These metrics contain all the metric labels.

The following metrics are generated for each scraped target:

Metric	Description
`up`	The value will be `0` if the scrape has failed otherwise will be `1`.
`scrape_duration_seconds`	Duration of the scrape.
`scrape_samples_scraped`	The number of samples the target exposed.
`scrape_samples_post_metric_relabeling`	The number of samples remaining after metric relabeling was applied.
`scrape_series_added`	The approximate number of new series in this scrape.
