Andrew Purtell commented on HBASE-21991: ---------------------------------------- Looks like we only have one release candidate affected at this time, 1.4.10RC0, and voting on that does not look like it will succeed. No problem to wait a few days. If the addendum is agreed upon and pushed I think we can pull the RC and generate a new one at that time. > Fix MetaMetrics issues - [Race condition, Faulty remove logic], few > improvements > -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-21991 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-21991 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Coprocessors, metrics > Reporter: Sakthi > Assignee: Sakthi > Priority: Major > Fix For: 3.0.0, 1.5.0, 2.2.0, 1.4.10, 2.3.0 > > Attachments: hbase-21991.addendum.patch, > hbase-21991.branch-1.001.patch, hbase-21991.branch-1.002.patch, > hbase-21991.master.001.patch, hbase-21991.master.002.patch, > hbase-21991.master.003.patch, hbase-21991.master.004.patch, > hbase-21991.master.005.patch, hbase-21991.master.006.patch > > > Here is a list of the issues related to the MetaMetrics implementation: > +*Bugs*+: > # [_Lossy counting for top-k_] *Faulty remove logic of non-eligible meters*: > Under certain conditions, we might end up storing/exposing all the meters > rather than top-k-ish > # MetaMetrics can throw NPE resulting in aborting of the RS because of a > *Race Condition*. > +*Improvements*+: > # With high number of regions in the cluster, exposure of metrics for each > region blows up the JMX from ~140 Kbs to 100+ Mbs depending on the number of > regions. It's better to use *lossy counting to maintain top-k for region > metrics* as well. > # As the lossy meters do not represent actual counts, I think, it'll be > better to *rename the meters to include "lossy" in the name*. It would be > more informative while monitoring the metrics and there would be less > confusion regarding actual counts to lossy counts. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
