Hi,

maybe it is to late and / or to warm, but where can I find the new prometheus mkp? On Exchange there is still 1.1.

Last I saw there was a werk note saying 1.2 had compatibility problems in 1.6.

Looks like it’s all in 1.7. So, if you running the unreleased version, you can probably pick it up in github (?)

Hi all,
Here are the instructions to activate the MKPs that are part of the Feature Pack.
The Feature Pack packages on the Exchange were for testing purposes, will delete it soon to avoid confusion. Thanks a lot for pointing that out! :smiley:
