Bug report
Please describe the issue you observed
-
What did you do?
Added both build.timestamp and lastupdatenanos to a Custom Chart with the Unit set to Duration.
-
What did you expect to see?
The build.timestamp metric should be 10 positive integer digits, representing a Unix timestamp, e.g. 1528682075––which is the behavior of lastupdatenanos.
-
What did you see instead?
build.timestamp is measured in seconds, but is processed as if it were measured in nanoseconds, so it's divided by 1E9, resulting in it displaying only 1 positive integer digit, e.g. 1.5

This issue applies to all metrics that are collected in seconds:
build.timestamp
gcbytesage
intentage
security.certificate.expiration.ca
security.certificate.expiration.node
sys.uptime
