Context deadline exceeded

[barnyb...@gmail.com]

Hello gentlemen. Help me figure out the case.

Previously, I used docker snmp-exporter on server 1(10.10.1.5) and docker prometheus on server 2(10.10.1.6). In the replication line in prometheus config of the server 2 , there was the exporter's ip address from server 1(10.10.1.5). Here's how it worked.

Now I decided that everything should be on the same server, so I took already a working image of the snmp-exporter from the server 1 and installed it on the local on server 2 where Prometheus is located, but after changing the "replacement" IP address to local servers 10.10.1.6, I get  a context deadline exceeded error. If i will change the replacement ip back to remote 10.10.1.5 everything is ok, why?

If you try calling the two exporters directly (with the ?target=IP
parameter) do they both work? Does one take longer than the other? Could
you have a firewall in the way from one of the two servers?

Firewalls are disabled, along the path / metrics are present. I think that exporter should work, because i'm using the same image for both.

So both URLs work if you make the requests from the server?

Yes, both URLs on port 9116 are working fine.

If both are working I'd suggest looking at both the scrape interval and
timeout. If you time the requests you are doing manually (e.g. via curl)
how long are they taking compared with the timeout/scrape values?
