As I'm evaluating Prometheus for SNMP monitoring, it seems like it's not
well suited for tracking string values. Is that correct, or can anyone
share how it's working for them?
As an example, I'm monitoring a Dolby CP850 and one of the metrics is
returned like this:
cp850BitstreamFormat{cp850BitstreamFormat="dolbyAtmos"} 1
There are 8 possible string values for that one. This OID type is
OctetString, and I am overriding to be DisplayString. So this becomes 8
separate time series, which is very hard to graph appropriately. My goal
is to track this (among other similar metrics) on a State Timeline in
grafana, where the key on the Y axis is "Bitstream Format" and the values
shows "dolbyAtmos", "pcm", "dolbyDigital", etc.
I appreciate any ideas!
