There are two known causes of this issue. Both causes relate to the SSH tunnels configuration in your user_vars.yml file.

Cause: Undefined collectors in user_vars.yml

There are collectors defined in the SSH tunnels configuration of your user_vars.yml file that are not defined in your opsview_deploy.yml file.

Solution

Check the opsview_ssh_tunnels_reverse_collectors and opsview_ssh_tunnels_forward_collectors sections of your user_vars.yml file for any collectors that are not defined in opsview_deploy.yml. If you find entries for any such collectors in either of these opsview_ssh_tunnels_..._collectors sections, remove them.

Cause: Collectors missing from setup-hosts.yml scope

You are running the setup-hosts.yml playbook using opsview-deploy with the -l flag to limit its scope to specific hosts. Collectors with SSH tunnel configuration in user_vars.yml are being excluded from scope.

Solution

Include all collectors declared in the opsview_ssh_tunnels_..._collectors sections of your user_vars.yml file in the scope of opsview-deploy when using -l to limit the scope of the setup-hosts.yml playbook.
