Track maxlag for wikidata on grafana dashboard
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

This metric should be tracked along with the 'real' dispatch values, so that we can see what clients see with the modified dispatch factor.

This will require updating the script in gerrit/analytics/wmde/scripts that calls the api looking for the dispatch lag and also updating the dashboard on grafana.

Event Timeline

So, the script is https://github.com/wikimedia/analytics-wmde-scripts/blob/master/src/wikidata/dispatch.php

We will need to:

  • Alter the script to make a new API call to get the new maxlag value.
  • Send that data to graphite using sendGauge with a sensibly named metric name
  • Merge patch on master of the repo on gerrit
  • Cherry-pick patch to production branch on gerrit & merge
  • Update the relevant dashboard to also show this new lag value somewhere

I guess this is stalled until T194950 is complete as the new max lag is not yet enabled anywhere

Per T194950#4314787 it is impossible to specifically track our new max lag without a new api module, so instead this task can just be about tracking the wikidata maxlag in general.

Looks good!
I filed a small follow up patch, but only vaguely related to this patch as the issue already existed with the dispatch script that was copied for this ticket.
