Description
If
maxRetries
is not in the format of a dictionary, that means the component failed to retrieve the agent configuration from central couch reqmgr_auxiliary db. In such cases, which have been sporadically happening, we should skip the component cycle to avoid a comparison of different data types (which is no longer a valid case in Python3, and an exception is raised).We still need to think about an alarm system for all these components, and which conditions to trigger them, but that is for the future in their own GH issues.
Is it backward compatible (if not, which system it affects?)
YES
