When did you restart the exporter? At 05:30:00?
what sort of "unreachable" was the broker? Was the broker restarted?
@hikhvar I am running both your PRs #27 and also the newer vendored in dependencies from #29 and this seems to have fixed the issues.
While running for days and weeks the broker the _MQTT_blackboxexporter working flawlessly it stopped probing the target with only those lines in it's output / log:
it was still available and happily providing the /metrics endpoint but those were not updated anymore. The _probe_mqtt_completedtotal and _probe_mqtt_startedtotal remain static, but interestingly the__probe_mqtt_startedtotal metric was +1 of the value _probe_mqtt_completedtotal had.
I believe the probing simply got stuck somehow, not applying some sort of timeout and recovering / retrying again for the next iteration / probing interval.
