----------------------------------
Fix Version/s: 2.6.0
> GraphiteSink emits wrong timestamps
> -----------------------------------
>
> Key: HADOOP-11182
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-11182
> Project: Hadoop Common
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 2.5.0, 2.5.1
> Reporter: Sascha Coenen
> Fix For: 2.6.0
>
> Attachments: HADOOP-11182-GraphiteSink-v1.patch,
> HADOOP-11182-v2.patch, HADOOP-11182-v3.patch

>
> the org.apache.hadoop.metrics2.sink.GraphiteSink class emits metrics at the
> configured time period, but the timestamps written only change every 128
> seconds, even it the configured time period in the configuration file is much
> shorter.
> This is due to a bug in line 93:
> {code:java}
> 092 // Round the timestamp to second as Graphite accepts it in
> such format.
> 093 int timestamp = Math.round(record.timestamp() / 1000.0f);
> {code}
> The timestamp property is a long and is divided by a float which yields a
> result that is not precise enough and yields same valued results for
> timestamps that lie up to 128 seconds apart. Also, the result is then written
> into an int variable.
> One solution would be to divide by 1000.0d, but the best fix would be to not
> even convert to a decimal format in the first place. Instead one could
> replace the line with the following:
> {code:java}
> long timestamp = record.timestamp() / 1000L;
> {code}
