JIRA JMX metrics mbeans return incorrect values

Background:

See Live monitoring using the JMX interface

A list of metrics collected by JIRA is provided on this page.

Current Behavior:

Some metrics return invalid values.

Example: entity.filters.total returns -1 due to encountering DataAccessException caused by invalid entityName.

Incorrect values have been reproduced with: 

• entity.filters.total
• entity.groups.total
• entity.users.total
• issue.assigned.count
• issue.search.count
• issue.link.count
• issue.worklogged.count

Expected Behavior:

JIRA JMX metrics mbeans return correct values

Additional Details:

Some invalid values caused by DataAccessException when retrieving count.

• These metrics show -1 for the values. The value "-1" is returned when DataAccessException is encountered

        protected long computeValue() {
            try {
                return ComponentAccessor.getOfBizDelegator().getCount(entityName);
            } catch (DataAccessException e) {
                return -1;
            }
