Description

This article explains how to fix the issue of PAA stopped publishing the metadata and metrics in Kafka topics, and hence, also stopped publishing the data in TimescaleDB.

Symptoms

This is the behavioural change in PAA 4.3.3 caused because results.rrd is missing from KAFKA_PUBLISH_RESOURCES in the netrounds configuration.

Solution

To fix the issue, please configure the following in /etc/netrounds/netrounds.conf:

 

KAFKA_PUBLISH_METADATA_FOR_STREAMS = True

 

KAFKA_PUBLISH_RESOURCES = (

'domain.domain',

'domain.user',

'genalyzer.genalyzer',

'monitoring.iptvchannel',

'monitoring.monitoring',

'monitoring.monitoringgroup',

'monitoring.pinghost',

'monitoring.twampreflector',

'monitoring.y1731mep',

'results.rrd',

'testing.testgroup',

)

 

Then restart services and resync metadata:

sudo ncc services restart

sudo ncc kafkapub-resync

 

After this, in sometime, you should see it publishing the metadata and metrics in Kafka.
