Payload length 5712574 exceeded limit of 5000000

[Adiseshu Borra]

Hi All,

In Discovery log i am getting below error.

" Payload length 5712574 exceeded limit of 5000000 ".

to fix this we needs to change "mid.discovery.max_payload_size" property value. But this Global parameter.

i cheeked in  system properties, Discovery properties and MID server properties, but no use.

can some one help me, where can i found this property ?

I am on a Paris instance and seeing this same error during VCenter scan with error message reported by ESX Hosts Storage probe.

Skipped sensor for VMWare - vCenter ESX Hosts Storage because of error in payload: Payload length 8679851 exceeded limit of 5000000

I set the mid.discovery.max_payload_size system property to -1 (in sys_properties.list per the instructions above). I noticed the SN docs state to set this in the probe parameters tab in the probe. I will do that next.

Update: After setting probe parameter, I am now getting a different error, also related to size:
Sensor error when processing VMWareProbe/a.b.c.d: Payload attachment exceeds the limit of 5242880 bytes set by system property com.glide.attachment.max_get_size.   Will adjust this property now. After multiple attempts, I have been unable to get past this error. I even cleared the property (to remove the max limit), but nothing changed and I still get this error.

Appreciate any help.
