This PR has 3 new changes for the Backend Listener :

• Start the scheduler for the InfluxdbListener immediately to send start annotation even if the test take less than 5 sec.
• Add a new parameter in the Influxdb Backend to put tags. ( i.e Tags are separated by spaces in grafana )
  Tags is put as Influxdb Tag for better query performance on it
• Add new option in jmeter.properties to ignore BackendListener when validating the thread group of plan

Hello,
Thanks for PR.
I'll look into merging it but what exactly is the 3rd point ? Is it to avoid sending to INflux the Validation results ?
Usually it's better to split PR in this case.

Thanks

Hello,

Yes it's exactly to avoid sending data to InfluxDB or Graphite when you just validate one thread group.
Sorry for merging this commits in the PR, next time I will split.

I tried the patch and I don't see annotations displayed.
I tried with:
eventTags = TestTag
And
eventTags = Test tag for release version=1.2.3

In my opinion, your events measurement in Influxdb is "corrupted" by old test and looks like this

You have the same entry name as Field and as Tag.
Pls could you test with a clean events measurement ? => " drop measurement events "

Hi,
You were right.
I have a second possible issue.
Here is what the meanAT shows. It does not look ok to me .

Strange ... could you try with a Group By function in your query like this :

You have to put a time equal or above the polling time scheduler of JMeter.
