I have no idea what he is trying to tell us, I don't see anything wrong here. Do you have an idea @andygrunwald ?

@MickLesk I have no idea what @pmmoss is trying to do or what bug he is telling us. It looks like that the metric pve_request_errors_created is set and exported.

If i have a quick look what this metric is, i find https://github.com/prometheus-pve/prometheus-pve-exporter/issues/278 which says

Please scrape the /pve path instead of /metrics. You can find detailed docs in the Readme and in the Wiki.

@MickLesk I suggest to just close this ticket and wait for a proper bug report.
