This issue is now documented in a bug report:

This issue actually prevents PerformanceAnalyzer from listening for any requests on port 9600, which makes it unusable. By looking at the sources it is an obvious issue, as the code tries to add the same handler 2 times so, the second attempt throws an exception which is not caught, so app is not working after that. The actual bug needs to be opened in : GitHub - opensearch-project/performance-analyzer-rca: The Performance Analyzer RCA is a framework that builds on the Performance Analyzer engine to support root cause analysis (RCA) of performance and reliability problems for OpenSearch instances.
