I am adding some jmx metrics to our monitoring tool. Is there a good overview of all existing jmx metrics and their description? http://wiki.apache.org/cassandra/Metrics has only a few metrics.
In particular I have questions about these now: org.apache.cassandra.db type=StorageProxy TotalHints - is this the number of hints since the node was started or a lifetime value org.apache.cassandra.db type=StorageProxy ReadRepairRepairedBackground - is this the total number of background read repair requests that the node received since restart? org.apache.cassandra.db type=StorageProxy ReadRepairRepairedBlocking - same as above, I assume thats the number of read repairs that have blocked a query (when does that even happen - aren't read repairs run in the background) org.apache.cassandra.metrics type=Storage name=Exceptions Count - is this the total number of unhandled exceptions since node restart?
