Monitoring

Display Name Description Related Name Default Value API Name Required
Cross Entity Aggregate Generation Filters Specifies two filters, a blacklist and a whitelist that impact what cross-entity aggregates are generated by the Cloudera Manager monitoring system. By default, cross-entity aggregates are generated for all types. The blacklist entries can be used to disable generation of cross-entity aggregates while whitelist entries can be used to force their creation.The JSON structure of this field is as follows:
  • blacklist - A filter that when matched will prevent cross-entity aggregate creation. The structure of the filter is outlined below.
  • whitelist - A filter that when matched will force cross-entity aggregate creation. The structure of the filter is outlined below. This filter takes precedence over the blacklist filter, so if both are matched, an aggregate will be generated.
The JSON structure of either filter is as follows:
  • types - A list of entries in the following format sourceType::targetType::aggregateMetricType, e.g. DATANODE::RACK::STATISTICAL.
  • streams - A list of entries in the following format sourceType::targetType::metricName::aggregateMetricType, e.g. HOST::CLUSTER::fd_open::TOTAL.
In the above filters the source and target types are entity type strings used within the metric system. ROLE, SERVICE and ALL are wildcards that match all role types, service types and all types respectively. Metrics are referred to by their user facing names, so counter-based metrics will be in _rate form. The two types of aggregate metrics are TOTAL and STATISTICAL.After making changes to this field, both the Cloudera Manager Server and the Service and Host Monitors should be restarted.For advanced use only. It is possible to break Cloudera Manager charting and health functionality by editing this field.		 blacklist: streams : [ ], types : [ KUDU_REPLICA::KUDU_TABLET::STATISTICAL ] , whitelist: streams : [ ], types : [ ] cross_entity_aggregate_filters false

Multi Cloudera Manager Dashboard

Display Name Description Related Name Default Value API Name Required
Multi Cloudera Manager Dashboard Metrics Specifies the set of metrics fetched periodically from each Cloudera Manager by the backend. Metrics defined here are available for inclusion in Multi Cloudera Manager Dashboard profiles, which are used to configure which information is available on the dashboard. Each metric has the following fields:
  • name (mandatory) - The name of the metric. This value must be unique across all metrics configured.
  • query (mandatory) - A tsquery expression representing the metric. The tsquery expression is issued against a remote Cloudera Manager. Queries defined in this section are expected to return a scalar value. Using a fucntion like 'last', 'min', or 'max' is recommended. See the tsquery documentation for more details on how to construct queries.
For example, the following metric could be defined to get CPU usage for all clusters from all Cloudera Manager intances. Cloudera supports fetching cluster level metrics by using 'clusterName = $CLUSTERNAME'. At runtime, the $CLUSTERNAME variable is substituted with the name of each cluster."name": "CPU Usage", "query": "select last(cpu_percent_across_hosts) where category = CLUSTER and clusterName = $CLUSTERNAME"		 [ name: CPU Usage, query: select last(moving_avg(cpu_percent_across_hosts, 300)) where category = CLUSTER and clusterName = $CLUSTERNAME , name: Disk Utilization, query: select last(moving_avg(utilization_across_disks, 300)) where category = CLUSTER and clusterName = $CLUSTERNAME , name: Memory Utilization, query: select last(moving_avg(total_physical_memory_used_across_hosts / total_physical_memory_total_across_hosts * 100, 300)) where category = CLUSTER and clusterName = $CLUSTERNAME , name: Disk Read IO, query: select last(moving_avg(total_read_bytes_rate_across_disks, 300)) where category = CLUSTER and clusterName = $CLUSTERNAME , name: Disk Write IO, query: select last(moving_avg(total_write_bytes_rate_across_disks, 300)) where category = CLUSTER and clusterName = $CLUSTERNAME , name: Network Bytes Transmit, query: select last(moving_avg(total_bytes_transmit_rate_across_network_interfaces, 300)) where category = CLUSTER and clusterName = $CLUSTERNAME , name: Network Bytes Received, query: select last(moving_avg(total_bytes_receive_rate_across_network_interfaces, 300)) where category = CLUSTER and clusterName = $CLUSTERNAME , name: Capacity Total, query: select last(total_dfs_capacity_across_hdfss) where category = CLUSTER and clusterName = $CLUSTERNAME , name: Capacity Used (Absolute), query: select last(total_dfs_capacity_used_across_hdfss + total_dfs_capacity_used_non_hdfs_across_hdfss) where category = CLUSTER and clusterName = $CLUSTERNAME , name: Capacity Used (Percentage), query: select last((total_dfs_capacity_used_across_hdfss + total_dfs_capacity_used_non_hdfs_across_hdfss) / total_dfs_capacity_across_hdfss) * 100 where category = CLUSTER and clusterName = $CLUSTERNAME , name: Transceivers, query: select last(moving_avg(total_xceivers_across_datanodes, 300)) where category = CLUSTER and clusterName = $CLUSTERNAME , name: Read IO, query: select last(moving_avg(total_bytes_read_rate_across_datanodes, 300)) where category = CLUSTER and clusterName = $CLUSTERNAME , name: Write IO, query: select last(moving_avg(total_bytes_written_rate_across_datanodes, 300)) where category = CLUSTER and clusterName = $CLUSTERNAME , name: Regions, query: select last(total_regions_across_regionservers) where category = CLUSTER and clusterName = $CLUSTERNAME , name: Regions in Transition, query: select last(total_regions_in_transition_across_masters) where category = CLUSTER and clusterName = $CLUSTERNAME , name: Longest Region in Transition, query: select last(stats(regions_in_transition_longest_time_across_masters, max)) where category = CLUSTER and clusterName = $CLUSTERNAME , name: Read Request Rate, query: select last(moving_avg(total_read_requests_rate_across_regionservers, 300)) where category = CLUSTER and clusterName = $CLUSTERNAME , name: Write Request Rate, query: select last(moving_avg(total_write_requests_rate_across_regionservers, 300)) where category = CLUSTER and clusterName = $CLUSTERNAME , name: Compaction Queue, query: select last(moving_avg(total_compaction_queue_size_across_regionservers, 300)) where category = CLUSTER and clusterName = $CLUSTERNAME , name: Flush Queue, query: select last(moving_avg(total_flush_queue_size_across_regionservers, 300)) where category = CLUSTER and clusterName = $CLUSTERNAME , name: Completed Queries, query: select sum(total_num_queries_rate_across_impalads) where category=CLUSTER and clusterName = $CLUSTERNAME , name: Sessions, query: select last(moving_avg(total_thrift_server_beeswax_frontend_connections_in_use_across_impalads + total_thrift_server_hiveserver2_frontend_connections_in_use_across_impalads, 300)) where category = CLUSTER and clusterName = $CLUSTERNAME , name: Completed Applications, query: select sum(total_apps_completed_rate_across_yarn_pools) where category=CLUSTER and clusterName = $CLUSTERNAME , name: Failed Applications, query: select sum(total_apps_failed_rate_across_yarn_pools) where category=CLUSTER and clusterName = $CLUSTERNAME , name: Pending Containers, query: select last(moving_avg(total_pending_containers_across_yarn_pools, 300)) where category = CLUSTER and clusterName = $CLUSTERNAME ] aggregator_metrics true
