The WAL package takes care of seamlessly joining the pieces of records and checks the checksum of the record while iterating through the records for replay. We instead replaced Prometheus itself with VMAgent. 1101 - ERROR_ARANGO_ILLEGAL_PARAMETER_FILE Will be raised if a parameter file is corrupted or cannot be read. Each of my attempts seemed to fail at different points during the rip and in my last. The WAL records are not heavily compressed by default (or compressed at all).

WAL is used as a protection against losing of recently added data on power loss. The default persistent volume capacity for Prometheus is 10 GB. That big a Prometheus takes 40-50m to checkpoint.
