Please see attached traffic graph. Traffic graphs (widgets, reporting - traffic, telegraf - influx - grafana...) stop collecting data from time to time. It will last about 1 to 4 hours, then start showing traffic for about an hour and then stop again.
Has anyone seen this before?
Interfaces are vmx (ESXI 7.0)
No performance issue, traffic is flowing great.

Just confirming, the 20.7.6 upgrade I have the same results. Seems after every reboot the traffic monitors shwo activity on the network but about 2 minutes later it stops. Telegraph is sending data to a influx server and I see the same there.
In 20.7 OS changed and currently it's unsupported to monitor traffic Data on Interfaces where running IPS or Sensei
@mimugmail - Thanks, I shut down the IDS and solid traffic monitoring now. As per my other posts, IDS/Netmap is really not working on my environment, a 10G card is down to about 1.2-1.5gbs. Now with IDS off, I get traffic monitoring and 3.9gbs.
There are some patches regarding vmxnet in the pipeline but no guarantee it will be as fast as 20.1.
Which pipeline? gauthig was already using all the FreeBSD available patches for stable/12 (20.7.4-next).
I thought Luigi is still working on it?
Hmm, I don't know. I'm waiting for another sync from Sunny Valley on these topics at the moment, but it's Christmas time after all so that could be January.
Cheers,
