This is an Event Server health test that checks that the event store size has not grown too far above the configured event store capacity. A failure of this health test indicates that the Event Server is having a problem performing cleanup. This may indicate a configuration problem or bug in the Event Server. This test can be configured using the Event Store Capacity Monitoring Thresholds Event Server monitoring setting.

Short Name: Event Store Size

This Event Server health test checks that the number of file descriptors used does not rise above some percentage of the Event Server 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 Event Server monitoring setting.

Short Name: File Descriptors

This Event Server health test checks that the Event Server is not spending too much time performing Java garbage collection. It checks that no more than some percentage of recent time is spent performing Java garbage collection. A failure of this health test may indicate a capacity planning problem or misconfiguration of the Event Server. This test can be configured using the Garbage Collection Duration Thresholds and Garbage Collection Duration Monitoring Period Event Server monitoring settings.

Short Name: GC Duration

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

Short Name: Host Health

This is an Event Server health test that checks that the filesystem containing the index directory of this Event Server has sufficient free space. This test can be configured using the Index Directory Free Space Monitoring Absolute Thresholds and Index Directory Free Space Monitoring Percentage Thresholds Event Server monitoring settings.

Short Name: Index Directory Free Space

This Event Server health test checks that the filesystem containing the log directory of this Event Server 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 Event Server monitoring settings.

Short Name: Log Directory Free Space

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

Short Name: Process Status

This Event Server health test checks that the Event Server has not recently exited unexpectedly. The test returns "Bad" health if the number of unexpected exits goes above a critical threshold. For example, if this test is configured with a critical threshold of 1, this test would return "Good" health if there have been no unexpected exits recently. If there has been 1 or more unexpected exits recently, this test would return "Bad" health. This test can be configured using the Unexpected Exits Thresholds and Unexpected Exits Monitoring Period Event Server monitoring settings.

Short Name: Unexpected Exits

This Event Server health test checks that the web server of the Event Server is responding quickly to requests by the Cloudera Manager Agent, and that the Cloudera Manager Agent can collect metrics from the web server. A failure of this health test may indicate a problem with the web server of the Event Server, a misconfiguration of the Event Server or a problem with the Cloudera Manager Agent. Consult the Cloudera Manager Agent logs and the logs of the Event Server for more detail. If the test's failure message indicates a communication problem, this means that the Cloudera Manager Agent's HTTP requests to the Event Server's web server are failing or timing out. These requests are completely local to the Event Server's host, and so should never fail under normal conditions. If the test's failure message indicates an unexpected response, then the Event Server's web server responded to the Cloudera Manager Agent's request, but the Cloudera Manager Agent could not interpret the response for some reason. This test can be configured using the Web Metric Collection Event Server monitoring setting.

Short Name: Web Server Status

This Event Server health test checks that no messages are being dropped by the writer stage of the Event Server pipeline. A failure of this health test indicates a problem with the Event Server. This may indicate a configuration problem or a bug in the Event Server. This test can be configured using the Event Server Write Pipeline Monitoring Time Period monitoring setting.

Short Name: Write Pipeline
