ES JVM use ZGC, esrally can't work

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

There is an error in the rally code (jvm_stats) when I set the ES Jvm use ZGC.

rally.log

Traceback (most recent call last):

KeyError: 'old'

The ES reture gc data is
"gc":{"collectors":{"ZGC":{"collection_count":96,"collection_time_in_millis":352}}}

Hi
Whilst we don't support ZGC in Elasticsearch, Rally should be robust and fail gracefully when it is unable to collect such additional stats. Given this requires code changes please follow this bug report here.

Thanks

Hi,

With ZGC, /_nodes/stats entry point do not report anymore old, young gc information for the jvm.

Enabling ZGC is experimental and rally do not support this for the time being.
