Widget exceeds the instance limit

Hi,

I have widget showing "Widget exceed the 520 instance limit.".

It is picking up vlans on a switch. As we all know, number of vlans can exceed 520. Therefore, I need this feature to be added ASAP.

I hope that many other logicmonitor users will agree with me on such feature to be added at least to specific Widget, if not system wide.

Thanks,

Samir

  • I agree on this request. I run an MSP and have some aggregation points that are more than 520 instances of data.

  • Hi all. This limit exists as to guarantee reasonable performance on the dashboard. We are in the process of getting our new data storage engine out into the wild, and once in place it should enable us to comfortably raise this limit. We're expecting that to happen this quarter.

    In the meantime, feel free to use the feedback button in your application to let us know if there's a specific limit that would suffice for you for now, and we'll do our best to make that adjustment if we're confident in the performance impacts (or lack thereof).

  • This limit was raised to 2000 a while ago. I think sometime in 2017. In general we suggest you change the configuration to break it up into groups that have fewer than 2000 instances.  Feel free to add comments to this thread with your use case and request to have this increased and to what (reasonable) number. 

  • We see the issue when we attempt to get aggregate bandwidth across a customers environment.

    We also see it when we attempt to show VM status. Even if we filter it to Error and Critical it will say the 2k limit.
