Best practice if you don't want to include NFS mounts is to exclude it from the list of filesystem types.
--collector.filesystem.fs-types-exclude="^(autofs|binfmt_misc|bpf|cgroup2?|configfs|debugfs|devpts|devtmpfs|fusectl|hugetlbfs|iso9660|mqueue| *nfs* |nsfs|overlay|proc|procfs|pstore|rpc_pipefs|securityfs|selinuxfs|squashfs|sysfs|tracefs)$" On Tue, Jul 23, 2024 at 3:10 PM mohan garden <[email protected]> wrote: > came across this query , seems data is collected when prometheus contacts > the node exporter during scrape. > https://groups.google.com/g/prometheus-users/c/h46MJjkEadQ > > This leaves me with just the following query , > does node exporter use the same method to collect the file system usage > stats which the df command uses? > > Regards, > - MG > > > On Tuesday, July 23, 2024 at 5:58:42 PM UTC+5:30 mohan garden wrote: > >> Hi All, >> We are running node exporter in our infra server and prometheus is able >> to scrape the reported data at 30 seconds scrape inverval.
