Navigator Audit Server Health Tests
Navigator Audit Server Audit Pipeline Test
This Navigator Audit Server health test checks that the Auditing for the Navigator Audit Server role is getting processed correctly and is not blocked. A failure of this health test may indicate a problem with the audit pipeline of Navigator Audit Server process. This test can fail either because the Cloudera Audit Server is not accepting audits, or the Cloudera Manager Agent on the Navigator Audit Server host isn't able to send audits because of some network issue. Check the Cloudera Manager Agent logs and Cloudera Audit Server logs for more details. This test can be enabled or disabled using the Navigator Audit Pipeline Health Check Navigator Audit Server monitoring setting.

Navigator Audit Server Process Status
This Navigator Audit Server health test checks that the Cloudera Manager Agent on the Navigator Audit Server host is heart beating correctly and that the process associated with the Navigator Audit Server role is in the state expected by Cloudera Manager. A failure of this health test may indicate a problem with the Navigator Audit Server process, a lack of connectivity to the Cloudera Manager Agent on the Navigator Audit Server host, or a problem with the Cloudera Manager Agent. This test can fail either because the Navigator Audit Server has crashed or because the Navigator Audit Server will not start or stop in a timely fashion. Check the Navigator Audit Server logs for more details. If the test fails because of problems communicating with the Cloudera Manager Agent on the Navigator Audit Server host, check the status of the Cloudera Manager Agent by running /etc/init.d/cloudera-scm-agent status on the Navigator Audit Server host, or look in the Cloudera Manager Agent logs on the Navigator Audit Server host for more details. This test can be enabled or disabled using the Navigator Audit Server Process Health Test Navigator Audit Server monitoring setting.

The test returns "Bad" health if the number of unexpected exits exceeds a critical threshold. For example, if this test is configured with a critical threshold of 1, this test returns "Good" health if there have been no unexpected exits recently. If 1 or more unexpected exits occured recently, this test returns "Bad" health.

Navigator Audit Server Web Server Status
This health test checks that the role's web server is responding quickly to requests by the Cloudera Manager Agent, and that the Cloudera Manager Agent can collect metrics from the web server. Failure of this health test may indicate a problem with the web server of the Navigator Audit Server, a misconfiguration of the Navigator Audit Server, or a problem with the Cloudera Manager Agent. Consult the Cloudera Manager Agent logs and the logs of the Navigator Audit Server for more detail. If the test failure message indicates a communication problem, the Cloudera Manager Agent's HTTP requests to the Navigator Audit Server's web server are failing or timing out. If the test's failure message indicates an unexpected response, the Navigator Audit Server's web server responded to the Cloudera Manager Agent's request, but the response could not be interpreted for some reason. This test can be configured using the Web Metric Collection Navigator Audit Server monitoring setting.
