I've installed via Helm kube-prometheus-stack from prometheus-community repository. Everything works fine but I got a problem with node/host names.
I'm using AKS with one node pool and 8 nodes. An example node hostname is:
aks-nodepool-0000A
. When I use command kubectl get nodes
I can see that the node name is a little bit different because it's written in lowercase, for example aks-nodepool-0000a
.
So that makes problem with metrics because some metrics are using lowercase node name like kube_node_status_capacity{node="$node",resource="cpu"}
and other metrics are with uppercase last letter, for example this one: node_uname_info{nodename="$node"})
.
This makes really a mess in my Grafana dashboards because I have to use two variables (one with lowercase and one with uppercase name).I tried to use case insensitive expression kube_node_status_capacity{node=~"(?i:($node))"},resource="cpu"}
but it does not work in any query.
Is there a solution to change all nodename
node
values to lowercase?
Long time ago I asked for it on GitHub. Few days ago I got answer. Now it can be easily done via relabel_config
