Prometheus analyzing process is always crashing after long run at random queries. There are a few workarounds to handle this situation in better way:

• better resiliency by applying retry/timeout per query
• continue to next query in case an error thrown

$ cortextool analyse prometheus ... command throws an exception during the analyzing process as such:

...
DEBU[0218] additional repository_duration_seconds_bucket 900
DEBU[0218] additional repository_duration_seconds_count 75
DEBU[0218] additional repository_duration_seconds_sum 75
cortextool: error: error querying count by (job) (request_duration_seconds_bucket): server_error: server error: 503, try --help

It throws 503 error but actually it returns 200 response:

$ curl <ADDR>/api/v1/query?query=count%20by%20(job)%20(consul_k8s_p_beholder_p2_1venus_worker_64_runtime_sys_bytes)

# 200 OK

Similar to $ cortextool analyse grafana ... command, we can continue to querying Prometheus and list the errors in a custom variable like query_errors as we already do in the grafana by defining a parse_errors field.

$ cortextool analyse grafana --address <ADDR> --key <KEY>
