VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics v1.77.1 on GitHub

Changes

v1.77.1

Released at 07-05-2022

FEATURE: vmagent: add ability to specify filters for Availability Zones in ec2_sd_config via az_filters section. This section can contain AZ-specific set of filters in the same way as the existing filters section, which is used for filtering EC2 instances. The list of supported AZ-specific filters is available here.
FEATURE: vmagent: expose vmagent_remotewrite_global_rows_pushed_before_relabel_total and vmagent_remotewrite_rows_pushed_after_relabel_total metrics at http://vmagent:8429/metrics, which can be used for monitoring the rate of rows (aka samples) pushed to remote storage before and after the relabeling via -remoteWrite.relabelConfig and -remoteWrite.urlRelabelConfig. See relabeling docs for details.
FEATURE: vmctl: add ability to skip db label during InfluxDB data import when influx-skip-database-label option is used. See this pull request. Thanks to @mback2k .
BUGFIX: vmagent: properly process passwords and secrets specified in the file pointed by -promscrape.config command-line flag. All the passwords and secrets were mistakenly replaced with <secret> string in v1.77.0. See this and this issue.
BUGFIX: vmagent: rename vmagent_remote_write_rate_limit_reached_total metric to vmagent_remotewrite_rate_limit_reached_total, so its name is consistent with the rest of vmagent_remotewrite_ metrics.
BUGFIX: vmagent: rename promscrape_stale_samples_created_total metric to vm_promscrape_stale_samples_created_total, so its name is consistent with the rest of vm_promscrape_ metrics.
BUGFIX: vmctl: properly import InfluxDB measurements if they contain db tag. Previously this could result in incomplete import of measurmenet tags. See this pull request. Thanks to @mback2k for the bugfix.
BUGFIX: vmui: do not reset the selected relative time range when entering new query. See this issue.
BUGFIX: vmbackup: disallow writing backups to -storageDataPath directory, since this directory is managed solely by VictoriaMetrics or vmstorage. Other apps shouldn't write into this directory. See this issue.
BUGFIX: do not allow setting -retentionPeriod smaller than one day, since VictoriaMetrics doesn't support properly such small retention periods. See this issue.
BUGFIX: VictoriaMetrics cluster: do not drop samples routed to readonly vmstorage nodes if -dropSamplesOnOverload command-line flag is set. Try re-routing them to healthy vmstorage nodes instead. See this issue.
