Changelog

4 bug fixes

  • The new host_metrics metrics for physical and logical CPU counts were moved to their own new gauges: logical_cpus and physical_cpus.
  • The http sink again accepts metrics and traces as events depending on the configured codec. This was a regression in behavior in 0.23.0 where it was incorrectly restricted.
  • The newly added expire_metrics option was corrected to be named expire_metrics_secs to match other configuration options. It was also corrected to take a fractional number of seconds where expire_metrics required configuration of the number of seconds and nanoseconds separately.
  • Internal metrics as reported by vector top and some sinks, like file, was corrected by reverting the internal metrics registry to again use absolute values.
