Since tags are mostly free-form, a single tag with a numeric value will get sent to influxdb as a number by default. Change that to always quote the tags as a string, like we do for the 'name' field. (InfluxDB can only have one type per field, so either a string or a number type).
This won't fix influxdb databases after there are already numeric values in there, but I guess most tags won't be purely numeric, so this won't be an issue for most users, and fixes the reverse case where purely numeric tags won't show up in influxdb. reported in the community forum: https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/138004/#post-724127 Signed-off-by: Dominik Csapak <d.csa...@proxmox.com> --- PVE/Status/InfluxDB.pm | 4 ++-- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/PVE/Status/InfluxDB.pm b/PVE/Status/InfluxDB.pm index 95c1d559..13a96711 100644 --- a/PVE/Status/InfluxDB.pm +++ b/PVE/Status/InfluxDB.pm @@ -276,8 +276,8 @@ sub test_connection { sub build_influxdb_payload { my ($class, $txn, $data, $ctime, $tags, $excluded, $measurement, $instance) = @_; - # 'abc' and '123' are both valid hostnames, that confuses influx's type detection - my $to_quote = { name => 1 }; + # 'abc' and '123' are both valid hostnames/tags, that confuses influx's type detection + my $to_quote = { name => 1, tags => 1, }; my @values = (); -- 2.39.5 _______________________________________________ pve-devel mailing list pve-devel@lists.proxmox.com https://lists.proxmox.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pve-devel
