proxmox metrics to influxdb error 500

[spleenftw]

Hello folks,

I have an influxdb coupled with a grafana on docker receiving data from my pve install.
It's configured in the Metrics parts correctly since i retrieve the data on influxdb / display them on grafana, but my logs are full of
```

I have the same issue. Did you ever solve?

I did resolve it, i increased the timeout to 15.

Thanks @spleenftw for the quick reply. It turned out my issue was related to CPU being maxed out. Once I got that under control, I stopped getting timeout errors. I'll keep the timeout value in mind should it happen again.

Where is the exact setting to increase timeout ?

 

[tejasthakur123]

@spleenftw - where did you find this setting in proxmox?

Inside the dialog box: tick the "Advanced [x]" checkbox and "a lower half" will be added, showing these options... ;-)
