show services accounting flow inline-jflow fpc-slot * results in "error: picinfo: connect failed after 5 retries" error
show services accounting flow inline-jflow fpc-slot * results in "error: picinfo: connect failed after 5 retries" error when sampling is disabled for the respective FPC. This is an expected behaviour when sampling is disabled.
Here is a snippet of the config and outputs for reference:
root@router-re0# show | display set | match TEST_INFLOW_SAMPLING
set chassis fpc 2 sampling-instance TEST_INFLOW_SAMPLING
set forwarding-options sampling instance TEST_INFLOW_SAMPLING input rate 5000

set forwarding-options sampling instance TEST_INFLOW_SAMPLING family inet output flow-server 8.8.8.8 port 9005
set forwarding-options sampling instance TEST_INFLOW_SAMPLING family inet output flow-server 8.8.8.8 version-ipfix template v4-ipfix-template
