Web User Interface for Debugging
You can use the Impala daemons (impalad, statestored, and catalogd) Web UI to display the diagnostic and status information. Each of these Impala daemons includes a built-in web server.
- Impala Daemon Web UI
-
The Impala Daemon (impalad) Web UI includes information about configuration settings, running and completed queries, and associated performance and resource usage for queries. In particular, the Details link for each query displays alternative views of the query including a graphical representation of the plan, and the output of the
EXPLAIN,SUMMARY, andPROFILEstatements from impala-shell. Each host that runs the impalad daemon has its own instance of the Web UI, with details about those queries for which that host served as the coordinator. The impalad Web UI is primarily used for diagnosing query problems that can be traced to a particular node. - StateStore Web UI
-
The StateStore (statestored) Web UI includes information about memory usage, configuration settings, and ongoing health checks performed by
statestored. Because there is only a single instance of thestatestoredwithin any Impala cluster, you access the Web UI only on the particular host that serves as the Impala StateStore. - Catalog Server Web UI
-
The Catalog Server (catalogd0 Web UI includes information about the databases, tables, and other objects managed by Impala, in addition to the resource usage and configuration settings of the
catalogd. Because there is only a single instance of thecatalogdwithin any Impala cluster, you access the Web UI only on the particular host that serves as the Impala Catalog Server.
