WJH monitoring fails to start with netq-agent on Cumulus Linux 5.0. To work around this issue, reinstall the netq-agent package and configure the netq agent to start monitoring:1. Add the gpg key for the repository:wget -qO - https://apps3.cumulusnetworks.com/setup/cumulus-apps-deb.pubkey | sudo apt-key add -2. Add the repository to /etc/apt/sources.list:echo ‘deb https://apps3.cumulusnetworks.com/repos/deb CumulusLinux-4 netq-latest’ | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list3. Reinstall the netq-agent package:sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install –reinstall netq-agent |

The NetQ Cloud VM for KVM hypervisors installer and opta-check fail because the minimum disk requirements do not meet the default image settings. To work around this issue, increase the disk space from 32GB to 64GB before you run the netq bootstrap command1. Check the size of the existing hard disk in the VM to confirm it is 32 GB. In this example, the number of 1 MB blocks is 31583, or 32 GB cumulus@netq-401-cloud:~$ df -hm / Filesystem 1M-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on /dev/vda1 31583 1192 30375 4% /2. Shutdown the VM 3. Check the size of the existing disk on the server hosting the VM to confirm it is 32 GB. In this example, the size appears in the virtual size field: root@server:/var/lib/libvirt/images# qemu-img info netq-4.0.1-ubuntu-18.04-tscloud-qemu.qcow2 image: netq-4.0.1-ubuntu-18.04-tscloud-qemu.qcow2 file format: qcow2 virtual size: 32G (34359738368 bytes) disk size: 1.3G cluster_size: 65536 Format specific information: compat: 1.1 lazy refcounts: false refcount bits: 16 corrupt: false4.

When RoCE (RDMA over Converged Ethernet) data collection is enabled in Cumulus Linux 4.3.z and 4.4.z, you can experience high dual uplink convergence times To work around this issue, disable RoCE monitoring:1. Edit ‘/etc/netq/commands/cl4-netq-commands.yml’ and comment out the following lines: #- period: “60” # key: “roce” # isactive: true # command: “/usr/lib/cumulus/mlxcmd –json roce counters” # parser: “local"2. Delete the ‘/var/run/netq/netq_commands.yml’ file: $ sudo rm /var/run/netq/netq_commands.yml3. Restart the NetQ agent: $ netq config agent restart |
