Aaron T. Myers commented on HDFS-7331: -------------------------------------- For reference, here's some docs on RRDTool, which is what Ganglia uses internally. Of particular note: {quote} Every rrd input parameter is either of type GAUGE, DERIVE, ABSOLUTE, COMPUTE or COUNTER. GAUGE values store a certain sample at a particular instant. Whereas COUNTER values store the difference from the previous value. COUNTERs are useful when you want to measure bandwidth utilization in which the values monotonically increase. Other types are not so commonly used. If you are curious read the man page of rrdcreate(1). {quote} > Add Datanode network counts to datanode jmx page > ------------------------------------------------ > > Key: HDFS-7331 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-7331 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: datanode > Reporter: Charles Lamb > Assignee: Charles Lamb > Priority: Minor > Attachments: HDFS-7331.001.patch, HDFS-7331.002.patch, > HDFS-7331.003.patch, HDFS-7331.004.patch > > > Add per-datanode counts to the datanode jmx page.
