Mine (prometheus) doesn’t because there are a lot of high-dimensional values to track in /proc and /sys that would blow out storage on a time-series database. Even if they did though, they could not let me actively inject changes to a cgroup. What do you suggest I try that does?

Experience from another company where I (and you) worked suggests that having the endpoints to expose the system metrics, without actually collecting and storing them, is the way to go.

Years of debugging in that company’s restricted environments solidified my desire for shell access to production environments. I was there a month before I was hunting for breadcrumbs in a BINARY_INFO log that I had five minutes to grab before it was deleted.
