DATALOSS INCOMPLETE_MESSAGE

Purpose

The advisory reports dataloss. The reason is an incomplete message.

The transport could not reassemble an inbound message because some data fragments did not arrive.

Diagnoses

  • Network issues could interfere with message transmission.
  • The sending process abruptly exited before transmitting all packets.
  • When this advisory occurs alongside DATALOSS SENDER_DISCARD, the problem could be within the sending process or a forwarding component.

Actions

Report this advisory to an administrator.

Fields

Field Description
name DATALOSS
reason INCOMPLETE_MESSAGE
endpoints The string array value of this field lists the endpoints that could have lost data.

Although data loss occurs primarily in a transport, its symptoms could affect all endpoints that use the transport, and by extension, any subscriber on those endpoints. Furthermore, transport names are meaningful to administrators, but usually not available to programmers. This advisory field reports the set of all endpoints through which the program could access the problematic transport, according to the configuration in the local realm object.

aggregation_count The long value of this field reports the cumulative number of incomplete message incidents during the time interval (see aggregation_time).

The base library aggregates this count separately for each transport.

aggregation_time The double floating point value, in seconds, of this field indicates the length of the time interval for aggregating the incidents that aggregation_count reports.

The time interval ends shortly before the timestamp.

timestamp The DateTime value of this field indicates the time that the library generated the advisory.

Although DateTime values can represent time with nanosecond precision, the actual resolution of the timestamp is only as fine-grained as the host computer's operating system supports.
