-------------------------------------

             Summary: Migrate Ambari Metrics Data On Ambari Major Upgrade to 
ambari-2.7.x is Migrating on 1 months data
                 Key: AMBARI-25302
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AMBARI-25302
             Project: Ambari
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: ambari-metrics
            Reporter: Akhil S Naik


I am upgrading from ambari-2.6.x to ambari-3.1.x (HDF3.1 to HDF - 3.3.1)

after upgrade of HDF and ambari, I follow the command to Migrate the Ambari 
metrics data: 


{code:java}
/usr/sbin/ambari-metrics-collector --config /etc/ambari-metrics-collector/conf/
            upgrade_start /etc/ambari-metrics-collector/conf/metrics_whitelist
{code}

Now after migration i can see only last 30 days data , all the Metrics data 
prior to 30 days is lost.

*Analysis* : 
Upon checking the code : 
https://github.com/apache/ambari/blob/release-2.7.3/ambari-metrics/ambari-metrics-timelineservice/src/main/java/org/apache/ambari/metrics/core/timeline/upgrade/core/MetricsDataMigrationLauncher.java

I found the Class MetricsDataMigrationLauncher.java Actually needs `startTime` 
as an argument which is the StartTime from which the migration need to be done, 
but we are not giving that anywhere in the code : 
https://github.com/apache/ambari-metrics/blob/dfaf6a4fcb78a6c0516a769b2fbe9cf449400ee2/ambari-metrics-timelineservice/conf/unix/ambari-metrics-collector#L333

also we are having the Default value of start time as 1 month : 
https://github.com/apache/ambari/blob/release-2.7.3/ambari-metrics/ambari-metrics-timelineservice/src/main/java/org/apache/ambari/metrics/core/timeline/upgrade/core/MetricsDataMigrationLauncher.java#L72


{code:java}
  public static final long DEFAULT_START_TIME = System.currentTimeMillis() - 
ONE_MONTH_MILLIS; //Last month
{code}

so inshort we are only migrating last one months data , but no where in docs we 
have mentioned that and it caused Data loss to Customer.
