Issue/Introduction

Views against metrics that used to work are now returning messages about Invalid Data. This is seen in the View where the chart or graph should be.

Environment

Release : 19.1

Component : IM Reporting / Admin / Configuration

Cause

The relationship between the Metric Family and it's Monitoring Profile was broken. The Metric Family was no longer part of the related Monitoring Profile.

As a result this broke the relationship between the devices and the Metric Family by severing the relationship that was present between Device<->Collection<->Monitoring Profile<->Metric Family<->Vendor Certification.

The primary clue here is observing the items for those Metric Families (Polled Metric Families tab for device in Monitored Devices Inventory) with a Filtered and Not Polled state.

Resolution

Add the related Metric Family back to the Monitoring Profile involved.

Within a few minutes the items should go back to Active and Polled.

Within 15-20 minutes, after 2-4 poll cycles have passed we should begin to see polled data return again.
