Overview

Metrics are statistical information exposed by Hadoop daemons, used for monitoring, performance tuning and debug. There are many metrics available by default and they are very useful for troubleshooting. This page shows the details of the available metrics.

Each section describes each context into which metrics are grouped.

The documentation of Metrics 2.0 framework is here.

rpcdetailed context

Metrics of rpcdetailed context are exposed in unified manner by RPC layer. Two metrics are exposed for each RPC based on its name. Metrics named “(RPC method name)NumOps” indicates total number of method calls, and metrics named “(RPC method name)AvgTime” shows average processing time for method calls in milliseconds. Please note that the AvgTime metrics do not include time spent waiting to acquire locks on data structures (see RpcLockWaitTimeAvgTime). Metrics named “Overall(RPC method name)AvgTime” shows the average overall processing time for method calls in milliseconds. It is measured from request arrival to when the response is sent back to the client.
