0.12.0 / 2015-03-04

  • [CHANGE] Use client_golang v0.3.1. THIS CHANGES FINGERPRINTING AND INVALIDATES ALL PERSISTED FINGERPRINTS. You have to wipe your storage to use this or later versions. There is a version guard in place that will prevent you to run Prometheus with the stored data of an older Prometheus.

0.11.1 / 2015-02-27

  • [BUGFIX] Make series maintenance complete again. (Ever since 0.9.0rc4, or commit 0851945, series would not be archived, chunk descriptors would not be evicted, and stale head chunks would never be closed. This happened due to accidental deletion of a line calling a (well tested :) function.

  • [BUGFIX] Check last time in head chunk for head chunk timeout, not first.

  • [CHANGE] Dependency management and vendoring changed/improved.
  • [CHANGE] Flag name changes to create consistency between various Prometheus binaries.
  • [CHANGE] Show unlimited number of metrics in autocomplete.
  • [CHANGE] Add query timeout.
  • [CHANGE] Remove labels on persist error counter.
  • [ENHANCEMENT] Various performance improvements for sample ingestion.

  • [BUGFIX] Fix Rickshaw/D3 version mismatch.
  • [CLEANUP] Various code cleanups.

  • [CHANGE] More efficient JSON result format in query API. This requires up-to-date versions of PromDash and prometheus_cli, too.
  • [ENHANCEMENT] Excluded non-minified Bootstrap assets and the Bootstrap maps from embedding into the binary. Those files are only used for debugging, and then you can use -web.use-local-assets. By including fewer files, the RAM usage during compilation is much more manageable.
  • [ENHANCEMENT] Help link points to http://prometheus.github.io now.
  • [FEATURE] Consoles for haproxy and cloudwatch.
  • [BUGFIX] Several fixes to graphs in consoles.
