Issue/Introduction

Spectrum Version is 21.2.x

while setting up gafana from

https://techdocs.broadcom.com/us/en/ca-enterprise-software/it-operations-management/spectrum/21-2/administrating/spectroserver-performance-administration/self-health-monitoring/spectroserver-health-view-beta.html

Set Up Spectrum Performance View
1. Configure the Spectrum InsideView
2. Install and Import Dashboard in Grafana
3. Customize Influx Database

on step 1 when i save the config page in OC web admin, it deletes the contents of the conf file at

\Spectrum\insideView\SpectrumInsideView.conf 

and wipes the config from the web page

restarting tomcat and the server did not repopulate the file.  This file comes populated at install.

 

Environment

Release : 21.x

Component : Spectrum OneClick

Cause

There is a problem with the snakeyaml-1.9 jar on Spectrum 21.2.x

Resolution

We will replace snakeyaml-1.9 jar with latest snakeyaml-1.30.jar in the next release 21.2.8.

Until then, please avoid to use the OC web page to configure InsideView.  It can be configured from the flat file

\Spectrum\insideView\SpectrumInsideView.conf 

or request a copy of snakeyaml-1.30.jar from support to replace the current problematic one.
