ThanosQuerierProxyMetricsMissing#
Alert is triggered when thanos_build_info{job='thanos-querier', service='thanos-querier-proxy-query'} metric is missing from Prometheus-cluster.
This alert either indicates that:
- the querier proxy does not return the
thanos_build_info{job='thanos-querier', service='thanos-querier-proxy-query'}metric - or Prometheus-cluster does not scrape querier proxy's metrics.
Troubleshooting Hints#

Case: the querier proxy does not return metric#
To check if querier proxy metrics are available:
kubectl get svc -n ${NAMESPACE} thanos-querier-proxy-query # service should be present
kubectl port-forward svc/thanos-querier-proxy-query -n ${NAMESPACE} 9090:9090 &
curl -sL http://localhost:9090/metrics
curl -sL http://localhost:9090/metrics | grep thanos_build_info
If metrics are not available, try to find the reason by checking status/logs of querier proxy:
kubectl get pod -n ${NAMESPACE} -l app.kubernetes.io/instance=thanos-monitoring-querier-proxy -l app.kubernetes.io/component=query
kubectl logs -n ${NAMESPACE} -l app.kubernetes.io/instance=thanos-monitoring-querier-proxy -l app.kubernetes.io/component=query
Case: Prometheus-cluster does not scrape querier proxy's metrics#
-
check status/logs of Prometheus
kubectl get pods -n monitoring | grep prometheus kubectl logs <prometheus_pod> -n monitoring -
check that the servicemonitor is present
kubectl get servicemonitor -n ${NAMESPACE} thanos-querier-proxy-query -
check the target, by doing a port-forward on the Prometheus-cluster
kubectl -n monitoring get svc -l app=kube-prometheus-stack-prometheus kubectl -n monitoring port-forward svc/<prometheus_svc> 12345:9090 &Connect to http://localhost:12345/targets, search
