Hi,

   1)  I am using "prometheus-2.0.0-beta.2.windows-amd64" for my monitoring application, I am facing following error on start of prometheus from command line.

     

"ts=2017-10-06T05:29:04.2664542Z caller=compact.go:327 msg="compact blocks" blocks=[01BVR0VRF6V6SFH3XDX2PCEA1W]

 Prometheus Command i used to start prometheus  is as follows

" prometheus.exe --config.file=prometheus.yml --web.enable-lifecycle --storage.tsdb.min-block-duration=15m --storage.tsdb.path="store1/" --storage.tsdb.no-lockfile" 

2) What is the standard way to run prometheus in windows OS environment such as 

    1) run as daemon process(background)

    2) On reboot restart the prometheus as a service

    3) On prometheus restart should start with already collected data(should not get lost the old collected data).

Thank You.
