Josh Elser commented on HBASE-18409: ------------------------------------ Thanks [~qwerty2.0]! Rebased patch looks like it did the trick * You have one whitespace nit to clean up (we can probably fix that on commit, honestly). * I don't think the test-failures are your fault. I think the unit-tests timed out which caused these to get reported as "failures" when it's more that they simply didn't get run. I have a note to follow up on the timed out tests on HBASE-18891. I'll try to circle back around here when I get to the bottom of that. > Migrate Client Metrics from codahale to hbase-metrics > ----------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-18409 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-18409 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Client, java, metrics > Affects Versions: 3.0.0 > Reporter: Ronald Macmaster > Labels: newbie > Fix For: 3.0.0 > > Attachments: > 0001-HBASE-18409-MetricsConnection-client-metrics-migration.patch, > 0002-HBASE-18409-MetricsConnection-client-metrics-migrati.patch, > 0003-HBASE-18409-MetricsConnection-client-metrics-migration.patch, > 0004-HBASE-18409-MetricsConnection-client-metrics-migration.patch > > Original Estimate: 168h > Remaining Estimate: 168h > > Currently, the metrics for hbase-client are tailored for reporting via a > client-side JMX server. > The MetricsConnection handles the metrics management and reporting via the > metrics platform from codahale. > This approach worked well for hbase-1.3.1 when the metrics platform was still > relatively young, but it could be improved by using the new > hbase-metrics-api. > Now that we have an actual hbase-metrics-api that master, regionserver, > zookeeper, and other daemons use, it would be good to also allow the client > to leverage the metrics-api. > Then, the client could also report its metrics via Hadoop's metrics2 if > desired or through another platform that utilizes the hbase-metrics-api. > If left alone, client metrics will continue to be only barely visible through > a client-side JMX server. > The migration to the new metrics-api could be done by simply changing the > Metrics data types from codahale types to hbase-metrics types without > changing the metrics signatures of MetricsConnection unless completely > necessary. > The codahale MetricsRegistry would also have to be exchanged for a > hbase-metrics MetricsRegistry. > I found this to be a necessary change after attempting to implement my own > Reporter to use within the MetricsConnection class. > I was attempting to create a HadoopMetrics2Reporter that extends the codahale > ScheduledReporter and reports the MetricsConnection metrics to Hadoop's > metrics2 system. > The already existing infrastructure in the hbase-metrics and > hbase-metrics-api projects could be easily leveraged for a cleaner solution. > If completed successfully, users could instead access their client-side > metrics through the hbase-metrics-api. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029)
