Allen Wittenauer commented on HADOOP-7144: ------------------------------------------ Did .21 ship with /metrics? If not, there is no need to deprecate it. We can just remove it. > Expose JMX with something like JMXProxyServlet > ----------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-7144 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-7144 > Project: Hadoop Common > Issue Type: New Feature > Reporter: Luke Lu > Labels: jmx > Fix For: 0.23.0 > > > Much of the Hadoop metrics and status info is available via JMX, especially > since 0.20.100, and 0.22+ (HDFS-1318, HADOOP-6728 etc.) For operations staff > not familiar JMX setup, especially JMX with SSL and firewall tunnelling, the > usage can be daunting. Using a JMXProxyServlet (a la Tomcat) to translate JMX > attributes into JSON output would make a lot of non-Java admins happy. > We could probably use Tomcat's JMXProxyServlet code directly, if it's already > output some standard format (JSON or XML etc.) The code is simple enough to > port over and can probably integrate with the common HttpServer as one of the > default servelet (maybe /jmx) for the pluggable security. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
