The experimental queue length metrics feature based on an estimation algorithm has been replaced by the native queue length metric. This document describes the migration path for systems using the old metrics.
Upgrading the monitoring instance
ServiceControl should be upgraded to version 1.48.0+. Upgrading endpoints first will prevent old monitoring instance versions from processing new, unsupported metric reports. Also, new monitoring instances produce WARN log entries when receiving legacy queue length reports:
Legacy queue length report received from instance of .
That enables identification of the endpoints running NServiceBus. packages that do not support the native queue length metric.
Upgrading ServicePulse
ServicePulse should be upgraded to the latest version. This step ensures compatibility with the updated version of the monitoring instance and ServicePulse.
Upgrading endpoints
All endpoints that send monitoring data must be upgraded to the latest version of NServiceBus.. The exact version depends on the NServiceBus endpoint's version. The table below shows the version ranges.
| NServiceBus | NServiceBus.Metrics.ServiceControl |
|---|---|
| 5.* | [1.3.0, 2.0) |
| 6.* | [2.1.0, 3.0) |
| 7.* | [3.0,) |
When running the MSMQ transport, it is necessary to install the latest NServiceBus. package.
