Some collectors occasionally post floats in scientific notation #723

Closed Synforge closed 7 years ago

Synforge commented 10 years ago

I've got a bit of an issue with some collectors where they occasionally push their metric in scientific notation. For example with the disk usage collector:

[2014-09-02 12:11:52,067] [Thread-1] host.vda2.concurrent_io: 9.97143369909e-05 [2014-09-02 12:11:52,076] [Thread-1] host.vda.concurrent_io: 9.97143369909e-05

So far I've noticed this in the following collectors/metrics: DiskUsage: average_queue_length concurrent_io

Cpu iowait

I've also noticed a somewhat related issue with the mysql collector where it attempts to push the metric mysql_slave_running as a string of ON which is obviously invalid.

2 Sep 12:20:12 - DEBUG: Bad line: ON,g in msg "host.mysql.slave_running:ON|g"

I can't seem to duplicate this behavior. Any chance you can debug it more?

Could this be caused by automatic type allocation? Perhaps forcing/implicit int() could help.

Thanks!
