Description

Motivation

In the context of #121582 the deployed InfluxDB input wouldn't seem to be picked up by Grafana but we also saw no issues with deployment or alerts to explain that it was broken.

Acceptance criteria

  • AC1: The team is aware of errors in Telegraf inputs

Suggestions

  • Run sudo telegraf --test --config /etc/telegraf/telegraf.d/slo.conf with the according config filename. By default only one config file will be used
  • Use logwarn (c.f. openqa logwarn)
  • Use https://grafana.com/oss/loki/ (maybe overkill?)

The MR was reviewed and merged, let's see if this is just fine. Hence putting it in feedback (and if for some reason it's not we can of course still reset the ticket and consider more elaborate options)

  • Status changed from Feedback to Resolved
  • Target version changed from future to Ready

The above might be enough. I don't think we have seen errors related to that in the past months.
