PuppetDB 2.3 shows ? for "Collection Queries"

[Lori Cho]

We are using puppetdb 2.3.4 with postgres.  

When looking at the dashboard, the following only shows '?', "Collection Queries", "Enqueuing", "DLO Compression", "DLO Size on Disk", "Discarded Messages".  

Can someone advise as to why this might be?

Hi Lori,
The issue with "Collection Queries" and "Enqueuing" is a known bug
that's described here:
https://tickets.puppetlabs.com/browse/PDB-1113

it's been fixed on PDB 3.x. Under working conditions those represent how
long it takes to query PDB's resources endpoint, and to post commands to
PDB.

The DLO-related metrics relate to failed commands, and they are
appearing as ? because none of your commands have failed, and thus the
dead letter office (DLO) does not yet exist. If you want to verify that
it works, you can cause a command failure by posting a report to the
commands endpoint twice (this will fail because of a constraint
violation, and cause some log noise as the command is retried).

By the way, doing that would also put some useless data in your database
when it succeeds on the first submission, so I wouldn't actually try it
unless you're on a test system.

How come the ticket is still open if fixed?? I came across that when googling earlier but with no responses to the ticket it was unclear what to make of it.

It was fixed incidentally in unrelated work. I've closed the ticket --
thanks for pointing that out.

I was reading release notes. PuppetDB 3.x ou works with Puppet 4?

[Wyatt Alt]

PuppetDB 3.x and PuppetDB 2.x both work with Puppet 4. PuppetDB 3.x does not work with Puppet 3.
