PMM Gravana does not show all data

May be i can use --disable-tablestats-limit with some count for bad server to collect as more stats as possible?

this option works only on during command run.
pmm-admin looking into mysql database and fetch table count, if current count is bigger than disable-tablestats-limit, tablestats queries become disabled.

Questions:

  1. You told, that with “pmm-admin add mysql:metrics --disable-tablestats”, two graphs on “MySQL Table Statistics” dashboard became empty for bad host - “Top Tables by Rows Read” “Top Tables by Rows Read”. ({#59|https://www.percona.com/forums/questions-discussions/percona-monitoring-and-management/47254-pmm-gravana-does-not-show-all-data?p=47685#post47685}). But all graphics on “MySQL Table Statistics” empty for bad server. Can you clarify, is it OK with --disable-tablestats, or it is error and must be fixed?
  2. “MySQL General” → “Process States” show “No datapoints” for bad server, for other servers there is data.
  3. All graphs on “MySQL Performance Schema” show “No datapoints” for bad server, for other servers there is data.
  4. All graphs on “MySQL Query Responce Time” show “No datapoints” for all servers.
  1. we have issue in mysqld_exporter option collect.info_schema.tablestats, but when you run pmm-admin with --disable-tablestats, it also disables mysqld_export collect.info_schema.tables option.
    so, all graphs on “MySQL Table Statistics” dashboard became empty. you can manually modify mysqld_exporter startup file but it is not recommended.

  2. can you check share output of following commands:

curl https://BAD-SERVER-IP:42002/metrics-mr --insecure | grep mysql_info_schema_threads
mysql -e "SELECT COALESCE(command,''),COALESCE(state,''),count(*),sum(time) FROM information_schema.processlist WHERE ID != connection_id() GROUP BY command,state ORDER BY null;"
  1. what mysql vendor and version do you use?

  2. These graphs are available only for Percona Server and MariaDB. It requires query response time plugin installed and query_response_time_stats variable turned on.
