This problem is related to defect DE517399:

Product deployments are configured to use ElasticSearch Node#1 instead to ElasticSearch LoadBalancer

Resolution

Below are the steps how to reconfigure DX APM components to point to ElasticSearch Load Balancer:


1) Update apm-em deployments

a) List all apm-em deployments:
 
kubectl get deployments -n<namespace> | grep apm-em
 
b) Edit all apm-em deployments :

kubectl edit deployment apm-em -n<namespace>

c) Replace 'jarvis-elasticsearch'  to 'jarvis-elasticsearch-lb' for below key :
  • ca.apm.ttstore.elastic.url
NOTE: After saving the changes new ones will be created
 
 
2) Update apmservices-tracestore config map
 
a) Open apmservices-tracestore config maps using:
