Truncate response message to avoid too large udp package using UdpMetricsSender In JMeter, we can use "BackendListener - InfluxdbBackendListenerClient - UdpMetricsSender" to send data as udp to InfluxDB. As we know, UDP package max size is limited to the MTU (about 1500 bytes). So if is possible to exceed it, for below example. ` jmeter,application=application,transaction=all,statut=all count=304,countError=304,hit=304,sb=39216,rb=106688,pct95.0=13.0,pct99.0=16.969999999999985,pct90.0=12.900000000000006 1542959710708000000 jmeter,application=application,statut=all,transaction=HTTP\ Request count=304,avg=8.8,min=6.0,max=17.0,sb=39216,rb=106688,pct95.0=13.0,pct99.0=16.969999999999985,pct90.0=12.900000000000006 1542959710709000000 jmeter,application=application,statut=ko,transaction=HTTP\ Request count=304,avg=8.8,min=6.0,max=17.0,pct95.0=13.0,pct99.0=16.969999999999985,pct90.0=12.900000000000006 1542959710710000000 jmeter,application=application,transaction=HTTP\ Request,responseCode=404,responseMessage=Vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvery llllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllong mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmessage count=304 1542959710710000000 jmeter,application=application,transaction=internal minAT=1,maxAT=1,meanAT=1,startedT=1,endedT=0 1542959710710000000 ` We will get below error and data are not sent to InfluxDB. > 2018-09-28 23:53:29,743 ERROR o.a.j.v.b.i.UdpMetricsSender: Error in transferring udp package > java.io.IOException: Message too long Considering the size of other fields/tags are under control, it will be better if we truncate the response message to about 50 bytes when it is too large (Only for udp sender).
