That's perfectly reasonable: it's only 54MB (which is a long way from 689GB!) Here's what I see on a moderately busy system: root@ldex-prometheus:~# du -sck /var/lib/prometheus/data/chunks_head/* 81004 /var/lib/prometheus/data/chunks_head/006831 77824 /var/lib/prometheus/data/chunks_head/006832 158828 total That's comparable to yours. Therefore, I think you need to keep an eye on this periodically. If only you had a monitoring system which could do this for you :-) If it does start to rise, that's when you'll need to check prometheus log output and find out what's happening. But this is very strange, and it does seem to be something specific to your system. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Prometheus Users" group.
