Problem

Hello!
Just after scheduled server reboot got some strange internal metrics:

vector_buffer_byte_size{buffer_type="disk",component_id="metrics_remote",component_kind="sink",component_type="vector",host="APP001",stage="0"} 18446744073709548000 1730571882818
vector_buffer_events{buffer_type="disk",component_id="metrics_remote",component_kind="sink",component_type="vector",host="APP001",stage="0"} 0 1730571882818

Indeed, buffer should be empty.

Configuration

[sinks.metrics_remote]
type = "vector"
inputs = [ "metric_aggregate" ]
address = "x.x.x.x:50001"
buffer = {type = "disk", max_size = 1073741824, when_full = "block"}
healthcheck.enabled = false

Version

vector 0.42.0 (x86_64-pc-windows-msvc 3d16e34 2024-10-21 14:10:14.375255220)
