Heap Dump Directory Free Space Monitoring Absolute Thresholds The health test thresholds for monitoring of free space on the filesystem that contains this role's heap dump directory. Warning: 10 GiB, Critical: 5 GiB heap_dump_directory_free_space_absolute_thresholds false
Heap Dump Directory Free Space Monitoring Percentage Thresholds The health test thresholds for monitoring of free space on the filesystem that contains this role's heap dump directory.

Process Swap Memory Thresholds The health test thresholds on the swap memory usage of the process. Warning: Any, Critical: Never process_swap_memory_thresholds false
Role Triggers The configured triggers for this role. This is a JSON formatted list of triggers. These triggers are evaluated as part as the health system. Every trigger expression is parsed, and if the trigger condition is met, the list of actions provided in the trigger expression is executed. Each trigger has all of the following fields:
  • triggerName (mandatory) - The name of the trigger. This value must be unique for the specific role.
  • triggerExpression (mandatory) - A tsquery expression representing the trigger.
  • streamThreshold (optional) - The maximum number of streams that can satisfy a condition of a trigger before the condition fires. By default set to 0, and any stream returned causes the condition to fire.
  • enabled (optional) - By default set to 'true'. If set to 'false', the trigger will not be evaluated.
  • expressionEditorConfig (optional) - Metadata for the trigger editor. If present, the trigger should only be edited from the Edit Trigger page; editing the trigger here may lead to inconsistencies.
For example, the following JSON formatted trigger configured for a DataNode fires if the DataNode has more than 1500 file-descriptors opened:[{"triggerName": "sample-trigger", "triggerExpression": "IF (SELECT fd_open WHERE roleName=$ROLENAME and last(fd_open) > 1500) DO health:bad", "streamThreshold": 0, "enabled": "true"}]See the trigger rules documentation for more details on how to write triggers using tsquery.The JSON format is evolving and may change in the future and, as a result, backward compatibility is not guaranteed between releases at this time.
