Issue/Introduction

Symptoms:
  • Metric points with over 20 point tags sent to Wavefront are not available to view when queried with the UI or API. 
  • The Wavefront proxy logs do not indicate why the metrics were rejected by the Wavefront cluster.


Resolution

Wavefront has an enforced limited of 20 point tags for most clusters. If the number of key/value pairs associated with the metric point sent exceeds 20, then the metric point is rejected. Reduce the number of point tags associated with the metric point to 20 or below.
