OR

Have you seen sudden spikes in the number of idle connections for as long as you've been running Postgres Exporter v0.14.0?

Hi All,

We have observed sudden connection spikes in some of our prod instances

Define "sudden".

 

due to idle session which was created by postgres exporters. 

We have fixed this  post restarted the postgres exporter services.

Kindly share if we have any bug fixes for the same.

Thanks in advance.
