atlassian-jira.log.9:3936Check if you have Jira Charting plugin installed via Manage Apps page. If yes, you can see UPM flag the plugin status as NOT DATA CENTER APPROVED according to Check if an app has a Data Center version link.
Cause
Most of the source errors were coming from the Jira Charting Plugin method (c.a.j.e.charting.field.AbstractSingleDateDAO). Prior to version 4.0.1, this plugin was unsafe for use in Data Center environments as it could cause a deadlock in the database when multiple nodes attempted to update custom field values at the same time:
Solution
Update the Jira Charting Plugin to version 4.0.1 or later (note that this requires Jira 9.6.0 or later). If this isn't possible, disable the Jira Charting plugin and run the same unix command again the following day to validate the spamming errors.
