Config reload does not report new metrics about jmxtrans-agent HOT 9 CLOSED

Could you post the agent part of your command line? Is anything logged (to stdout) from jmxtrans-agent in the minutes after you have touched the configuration?

Also, if you could post what jmxtrans-agent logs at startup it would help.

Hi, to add to @kerlandsson comments, could you please activate:

• jmxtrans-agent diagnosis: https://github.com/jmxtrans/jmxtrans-agent/wiki/Troubleshooting#enabling-jmxtransagent-diagnostic-info
• jmxtrans-logs: https://github.com/jmxtrans/jmxtrans-agent/wiki/Troubleshooting#enabling-logs

from jmxtrans-agent.

@kerlandsson note: it may make sense to add a debug line to dump the new configuration with a TRACE log message at

The method JmxTransExporterConfiguration.toString() dumps everything.

what do you think?

@cyrille-leclerc Makes sense. I went ahead and added it: 47f8efb

@bl1nk we have deployed a new snapshot with @kerlandsson's improvement.

Could you test with it?

https://oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/snapshots/org/jmxtrans/agent/jmxtrans-agent/1.2.4-SNAPSHOT/jmxtrans-agent-1.2.4-20160519.084523-1.jar

I've deployed a service with your new jmxtrans agent and with logging and diagnosis enabled. I removed a query from my jmxtrans config and it stopped reporting metrics for that query. After adding the query to my config jmxtrans started reporting metrics again, logs confirm both of this.

I would close this... for now. It didn't work with another query before, but I can't reproduce it.
Thanks for your help!

I'm happy it is resolved! It might have been that you used a too old version - the configuration reload functionality is quite new.

We have been using 1.2.0 before, I just updated to 1.2.3
