Issue/Introduction

After upgrading to 3.7 the data collector will not connect to the DA. 

The following is seen in the karaf.log after a reinstall of the data collector

Environment

DxNetOps Performance Management any version

Cause

grep brokerName /opt/IMDataCollector/app/broker/apache-activemq-x.xx.x/conf/activemq.xml produces two identical broker names.  Broker names should be unique

Resolution

The following should be done

1. Stop DC and activemq

- systemctl stop dcmd
- systemctl stop activemq
- ps -ef |grep java to confirm nothing is running 

2. Go to /opt/IMDataCollector/app/apache-karaf-x.x.x/etc com.ca.im.dm.core.collector.cfg 

- This should give you the correct broker id ---> copy to your buffer 
Ex: brokerName="dc_broker_04620c80-c393-46d1-9c58-7b7ff3100e06"

3. Update the activemq.xml file with the correct brokerName 

4. Start the DC (systemctl start dcmd) 

- no need to start activemq, it should start automatically 

Additional Information

DC's may require a reboot after updating the activemq.xml
