Can anyone guide me that what does active column is representing here exactly? My current understanding is that for example for celery@worker45, it is showing that 5 threads of this worker are active at the moment. See screenshot for reference
Also, one of my workers is going offline for a second again and again. What does this mean?
"Active" column in Flower's dashboard gives you the same numbers inspect active command gives (try celery -A your.celery.app inspect active
). Basically, number of tasks currently running on that particular node.
When a worker disappears on Flower's dashboard, it means it failed to send the heartbeat signal back to Flower. This is typically due to some networking issues.
