When I don't use the option "-storage.local.path=/etc/prometheus/data", the container Starts and works for a few day an stops then scraping data.

It makes more sense to ask questions like this on the prometheus-users mailing list rather than in a GitHub issue. On the mailing list, more people are available to potentially respond to your question, and the whole community can benefit from the answers provided.
