Saw this in the server log [org.rhq.enterprise.server.cloud.instance.CacheConsistencyManagerBean] jon03.qa.atl2.redhat.com took [378399]ms to reload cache for 250 agents a) Over 6mins seems a bit long, not sure if that is to be expected. b) I dont have 250agents in the inventory, I have 218 in inventory and 32 uncommitted in the autodiscovery portlet.
charles, did you only see this once, or is this consistent? the cache shouldn't take anywhere near that long to load, so my first guess would be that your database was unhealthy in some other way and/or was busy processing some sort sort of data. if this happens, you should turn on debug logging for the alerts-related SLSBs (this is already commented our in the server's log4j config file).
This bug was previously known as http://jira.rhq-project.org/browse/RHQ-1707
Need to test in the perf env to see if this is still a problem
