Query historical events missing

Issue/Introduction

 

 

Query Historical events is missing from the APM 20.6 workstation.

Also missing from WebView

Documentation suggests to review Analysis Notebook but there is a requirement to see all traces/errors.

Environment

Release : 20.2

Component : APM Agents

Cause

 

 

The trace events are now stored in ElasticSearch and Workstation/WebView have not been enhanced to use that as a data source.

Live traces/errors will not be visible also.

 

Resolution

 

 

It is possible to query the ElasticSearch directly with a URL in an on-premise deployment:

http://es.<defaultSubDomain>/ao_apm_tt_2_1/

 

Using the search option, it could be possible to find errors that way

http://es.<defaultSubDomain>/ao_apm_tt_2_1/_search

 

This is a guide for ElasticSearch search syntax from URLs

 

https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/7.9/search-search.html

 

The DX dashboards based on Grafana would be the way to find more data by finding the ao_apm_tt index and making a visualisation of data from there.
