Adding the Group ID to the appropriate one while receiving OTel metrics from the Event Gateway and Event Manager pods

While using the OpenTelemetry Collector to receive OTel metrics from the Event Gateway and Event Manager pods, Metric publication from EGW/EEM( version 11.6.2) is working as expected, and we can see the metrics via the debug and Prometheus exporters. However, the consumers_msgs and consumers_bytes metrics do not display the Group ID correctly as below:

Example of the metric printed by debug exporter, connection created by Java client:
consumers_msgs{clientId=clientIdJakub,connectionId=69a6a140-443e-4fb5-b06a-20f03e1adbe7,gateway=vedoc-dev1/vedoc-dev1/event-gw-dev1-ibm-egw-gateway-5bc95b9b77-wfvxg,group=NoGroup,org=eem,subscription=7aea29a5-e903-4889-90e5-cbbf906d4211,subscriptionId=7aea29a5-e903-4889-90e5-cbbf906d4211,version=11.6.2} 1551Testing:
kcat -G vedoc-dev1 vehicle.updates.complete.v1

connection details:
security.protocol=SASL_SSL
sasl.mechanism=PLAINother properties: sasl.username, sasl.password, ssl.ca.location

Metric from kcat connnection:
consumers_msgs{clientId=rdkafka,connectionId=3f1f45d7-f188-47e1-b53b-973dcaa3ed8e,gateway=vedoc-dev1/vedoc-dev1/event-gw-dev1-ibm-egw-gateway-5bc95b9b77-29hp4,group=NoGroup,org=eem,subscription=8676388b-c842-4928-8adb-f40a19a5f87c,subscriptionId=8676388b-c842-4928-8adb-f40a19a5f87c,version=11.6.2} 0From the findings:
 

  • Noticed repeated “Group ID to coordinator routing table does not contain mapping” errors in EGW logs: Group id to coordinator routing table does not contain mapping for Group id
  • Kafka exceptions in the core dump, including GroupIdNotFoundException, InvalidGroupIdException, and others: org/apache/kafka/common/errors/GroupIdNotFoundException, Caught com.ibm.ei.dependents.eem.EEMStatefulSet$MissingKeyException: Missing key
  • SSL errors when EGW attempts to publish usage metrics (Failed to create SSL connection).
