Release : 9.4
Component : Integration with APM
APM 10.7.0.258
OS: Red Hat 7.8
The root cause is an issue in PAPIM integration, by design the integration sends the "Request Size(bytes)" and "Response Size (bytes) as "Attributes"
however, these attributes keep changing continuously, so it causes the below WARN messages in the EM log:
The solution to this issue is to report the "Request Size(bytes)" and "Response Size (bytes)" as Metrics instead of "Attributes"
APIM has to stop sending request and response size as attributes in traces to APM. As trace properties they are perfectly fine, just remove the "ATTR_" prefix!
This is a defect; however, the workaround is given ..
The below change ensures the collected traces containing the Request Size and Response Size parameters without the ATTR prefix. It is based on find and replace using simple Evaluate Regular Expression assertion. Change is provided to the Layer7 Gateway policy and hence it will be immediately into effect as soon as the changed policy is saved and activated.
Note: Take a backup of the policy prior to editing it.
