An error has occurred while serving metrics

Dear Team,

We use the cgroup_exporter in more compute node, but sometime we got this error message:

# curl localhost:9306/metrics
An error has occurred while serving metrics:

I tried to restart the cgroup_exporter and the slurmd services, but it didn't solve the problem. After I rebooted the whole compute node, the issue resolved. Do you have any idea?

when I remove the '--collect.fullslurm' flag, it works again. Maybe it cannot measure some kind of job?
