846338 - Telemetry report on Flash version breakdowns is very flaky

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Mozilla Metrics :: Data/Backend Reports, defect)

Description

[Benjamin Smedberg]

The telemetry reports on Flash version breakdowns has been very flaky recently. The last correct report was on 20130223. Most of the days since then are completely missing, but there is one empty dataset on 20130226.

This was originally implemented by xstevens in bug 789697 and https://metrics.mozilla.com/projects/browse/METRICS-1076


Is it possible to get some kind of nagios monitoring for this report?

There were a number of daily telemetry jobs being run from a single cron script, one of which was consistently hanging for the past several runs.  This caused the following jobs to be delayed too.

The jobs have now been split up so that one hang won't affect the other unrelated exports.

I'll make sure that the flash exports are correctly back-filled to Feb. 23rd.

Daniel, who can look at setting up alerting for delayed/missing exports?

We've had ongoing problems with the telemetry exports in general, including the flash version exports.  

I'm working on fixing the missing ones from Feb 28 to Mar 2 now.

The period from Feb 28 to Mar 2 is now fixed.
