Network Flow Analysis is showing gaps in the graphs when viewing at one minute resolution.

• CA Network Flow Analysis (NetQos / NFA)

Issue/Introduction

When viewing data at a one minute resolution, our graphs resemble this screenshot:

Environment

Network Flow Analysis v. 9.3.6 and prior

Cause

The router(s) in question is sending flows to two harvesters connected to the same NFA console. The console is consistently reassigning the router to each of the harvesters and the graphing becomes degraded.

Resolution

The router's configuration needs to be edited so that it is only sending data to one harvester. You should also investigate the possibility of a 'cloner' forwarding flows to a second harvester unintentionally.
