Prometheus how "up" metrics works
13,838
From the docs:
up{job="<job-name>", instance="<instance-id>"}:1if the instance is healthy, i.e. reachable, or0if the scrape failed.
i.e. it is a per scraper / exporter metric which means whether the exporter was available / reachable or not.

I'm looking for information how "up" metrics is calculated by Prometheus
up{job="<job-name>", instance="<instance-id>"}: 1 if the instance is healthy, i.e. reachable, or 0 if the scrape failed.How Prometheus calculate when
the instance is healthy
I'm using Apache Cassandra with Prometheus and from time to time "up" metrics showing "down". However Cassandra working OK.
