InfluxDB doesnt pick up metrics sometimes #52

Closed ankush819 closed 7 years ago

ankush819 commented 8 years ago

I use logstash-output-influxdb plugin to send my metrics directly to influxDB. Sometimes the nohup agent running logstash gets killed and when I restart the agent again, influx wont pick up the metrics spontaneously most of the times. It has a buffer time of 15 mins - 2 hrs after which it starts showing these metrics on grafana.

I did a tcpdump on my monitoring server and I can see packets getting sent to 8086 port. So the metrics IS reaching the monitoring server but somehow influx wouldn't show that in this window.

I am not sure if it is even related to this plugin. Please redirect me to the right place if it isn't.

On a side note, we also another setup in which the logstash metrics are sent to the riemann server using logstash-riemann plugin. We don't see this issue there.
