Scenario: Trying to put ~20k metrics in a single HTTP request to /argus/collection/metrics fails with misleading error message.
When pushing 20k metrics via /argus/collection/metrics, the request fails with a 500. Following insufficient log message occurs in log of the metric-client:
[ ARGUS | *NULLSESSION* | *NULLUSER* | *NULLTXID* | 2017-05-05 14:09:23.658 | ccommitclient-1 | INFO ] Error occured while committing metrics. Reason com.salesforce.dva.argus.system.SystemException: com.fasterxml.jackson.core.JsonParseException: Unexpected character ('<' (code 60)): expected a valid value (number, String, array, object, 'true', 'false' or 'null')

The root cause for this error is that chunked requests to OpenTSDB are not allowed per default. So the REST call to openTSDBs /api/put returns 400 and some HTML content (which contains the actual error message 'Chunked request not supported.')
