Issue with Informix Dashboard Metrics Due to Extension Version 1.0

Nicky23

Hiii!......I have an issue with the metrics on my Informix dashboard not being displayed correctly because the extension I am using is still on version 1.0. According to the documentation, migrating to version 2.0 is necessary for the metrics to be displayed properly.

Is there any alternative solution or a temporary workaround to view the metrics while we migrate to version 2.0?

Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Best regards,
Nicky

 Hi @Nicky23 

I think the only way is (temp until a new 2.0 extension) to downgrade your Oneagent or ActiveGate to 1.299 (based on which one is used in the extension).

I hope it helps.

We will very likely convert the legacy Informix 1.0 extension to the new Extension 2.0 framework, and it should be available in the hub, too. I will report back here in this thread, but this likely won't happen until the end of this calendar year.

Thank you for your update regarding the planned conversion of the legacy Informix 1.0 extension to the new Extension 2.0 framework and its expected availability in the Hub by the end of this calendar year.

In the meantime, I am continuing with my attempt to migrate the extension manually. I have followed the official Extension Migration Guide with Python and managed to create the extension in version 2.0. However, I am still encountering the following issue:
"Distribution of certificate file is required to execute Extension 2.0."

I have already copied the certificate to the ActiveGate since it is not locally available on my machine, but the error persists.

Given that the official conversion is still a few months away, I would appreciate any interim guidance on:

  1. Additional steps or best practices to resolve the certificate issue.
  2. Tips on migrating metrics, queries, and other components from the version 1.0 code, as I am still learning and have limited experience with this process.

Thank you in advance for any assistance you can provide.
