HBase Thrift Server Health Checks

HBase Thrift Server File Descriptors

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

Short Name: File Descriptors

Property Name Description Template Name Default Value Unit
File Descriptor Monitoring Thresholds The health check thresholds of the number of file descriptors used. Specified as a percentage of file descriptor limit. hbasethriftserver_fd_thresholds critical:70.000000, warning:50.000000 PERCENT

HBase Thrift Server Host Health

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

Short Name: Host Health

Property Name Description Template Name Default Value Unit
HBase Thrift Server Host Health Check When computing the overall HBase Thrift Server health, consider the host's health. hbasethriftserver_host_health_enabled true no unit

HBase Thrift Server Log Directory Free Space

This HBase Thrift Server health check checks that the filesystem containing the log directory of this HBase Thrift 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 HBase Thrift Server monitoring settings.

Short Name: Log Directory Free Space

Property Name Description Template Name Default Value Unit
Log Directory Free Space Monitoring Absolute Thresholds The health check thresholds for monitoring of free space on the filesystem that contains this role's log directory. log_directory_free_space_absolute_thresholds critical:5368709120.000000, warning:10737418240.000000 BYTES
Log Directory Free Space Monitoring Percentage Thresholds The health check 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. log_directory_free_space_percentage_thresholds critical:never, warning:never PERCENT

HBase Thrift Server Process Status

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

Short Name: Process Status

Property Name Description Template Name Default Value Unit
HBase Thrift Server Process Health Check Enables the health check that the HBase Thrift Server's process state is consistent with the role configuration hbasethriftserver_scm_health_enabled true no unit

HBase Thrift Server Unexpected Exits

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

Short Name: Unexpected Exits

Property Name Description Template Name Default Value Unit
Unexpected Exits Monitoring Period The period to review when computing unexpected exits. unexpected_exits_window 5 MINUTES
Unexpected Exits Thresholds The health check thresholds for unexpected exits encountered within a recent period specified by the unexpected_exits_window configuration for the role. unexpected_exits_thresholds critical:any, warning:never no unit
