Query Processor Health Tests

Query Processor Audit Pipeline Test

This Query Processor health test checks that the Auditing for the Query Processor role is getting processed correctly and is not blocked. A failure of this health test may indicate a problem with the audit pipeline of Query Processor process. This test can fail either because the Cloudera Audit Server is not accepting audits, or the Cloudera Manager Agent on the Query Processor 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 Query Processor monitoring setting.

Query Processor File Descriptors

This Query Processor health test checks that the number of file descriptors used does not rise above some percentage of the Query Processor file descriptor limit. A failure of this health test may indicate a bug in either Hadoop or Cloudera Manager. Contact Cloudera support. This test can be configured using the File Descriptor Monitoring Thresholds Query Processor monitoring setting.

query_processor_fd_thresholds
Default Value
critical:70.0, warning:50.0
Unit(s)
PERCENT

Query Processor Host Health

This Query Processor health test factors in the health of the host upon which the Query Processor is running. A failure of this test means that the host running the Query Processor is experiencing some problem. See that host's status page for more details.This test can be enabled or disabled using the Query Processor Host Health Test Query Processor monitoring setting.

Short Name: Host Health

Query Processor Host Health Test

Description
When computing the overall Query Processor health, consider the host's health.
Template Name
query_processor_host_health_enabled
Default Value
true
Unit(s)
no unit

Query Processor Log Directory Free Space

This Query Processor health test checks that the filesystem containing the log directory of this Query Processor has sufficient free space. This test can be configured using the Log Directory Free Space Monitoring Absolute Thresholds and Log Directory Free Space Monitoring Percentage Thresholds Query Processor monitoring settings.

Short Name: Log Directory Free Space

Log Directory Free Space Monitoring Absolute Thresholds

Description
The health test thresholds for monitoring of free space on the filesystem that contains this role's log directory.
Template Name
log_directory_free_space_absolute_thresholds
Default Value
critical:5.36870912E9, warning:1.073741824E10
Unit(s)
BYTES

Log Directory Free Space Monitoring Percentage Thresholds

Description
The health test thresholds for monitoring of free space on the filesystem that contains this role's log directory. Specified as a percentage of the capacity on that filesystem. This setting is not used if a Log Directory Free Space Monitoring Absolute Thresholds setting is configured.
Template Name
log_directory_free_space_percentage_thresholds
Default Value
critical:never, warning:never
Unit(s)
PERCENT

Query Processor Process Status

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

Short Name: Process Status

Query Processor Process Health Test

Description
Enables the health test that the Query Processor's process state is consistent with the role configuration
Template Name
query_processor_scm_health_enabled
Default Value
true
Unit(s)
no unit

Query Processor Swap Memory Usage

This Query Processor health test checks the amount of swap memory in use by the role. A failure of this health test may indicate that your machine is overloaded. This test can be configured using the Process Swap Memory Thresholds monitoring settings.

Short Name: Swap Memory Usage

Process Swap Memory Thresholds

Description
The health test thresholds on the swap memory usage of the process. This takes precedence over the host level threshold.
Template Name
process_swap_memory_thresholds
Default Value
critical:never, warning:200.0
Unit(s)
BYTES

Query Processor Swap Memory Usage Rate Beta

This Query Processor health test checks the change of the amount of swap memory usage by the role during a predefined period. A failure of this health test may indicate that your machine is overloaded. This test can be configured using the Swap Memory Usage Rate Thresholds and Swap Memory Usage Rate Window monitoring settings.

Short Name: Swap Memory Usage Rate Beta

Swap Memory Usage Rate Thresholds

Description
The health test thresholds on the swap memory usage rate of the process. Specified as the change of the used swap memory during the predefined period.
Template Name
process_swap_memory_rate_thresholds
Default Value
critical:never, warning:never
Unit(s)
BYTES

Swap Memory Usage Rate Window

Description
The period to review when computing unexpected swap memory usage change of the process.
Template Name
process_swap_memory_rate_window
Default Value
5
Unit(s)
MINUTES

Query Processor Unexpected Exits

This Query Processor health test checks that the Query Processor has not recently exited unexpectedly. 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. The test also indicates whether any of the exits were caused by an OutOfMemory error if the Cloudera Manager Kill When Out of Memory monitoring setting is enabled. This test can be configured using the Unexpected Exits Thresholds and Unexpected Exits Monitoring Period Query Processor monitoring settings.
