Issue/Introduction

we have a APM cluster (1 MOM/10 Collectors/2 webview) that is used to monitored are Kubernetes clusters are are seeing agents disconnecting and re-connecting within a few milliseconds.  Example on a single collector over a 12 hour period,  there was a total of 88969 disconnects/connections. We have a mix of agent version from 10.5.2 through 20.6.x.  the APM cluster running 10.7.0.308 (Build 997100)

Environment

Release : 10.7.0

Component : Integration with APM

Cause

We saw this error in the Agent logs.

We recommended that the customer bypass the bootstrap agent and start the agent with the agent.jar in the wily folder.  This address the disconnection issues and error message.
