Hi Thomas, No specific guide for monitoring performance but I strongly recommend that you read the following sections of the book:
http://hbase.apache.org/book/performance.html http://hbase.apache.org/book/trouble.html And regarding general advices, lookout for swap and high iowait, verify that you don't max out your network (but also make sure it runs a decent speeds, same for the disks), if you do a lot of random reads look for the efficiency of the block cache (it has a few metrics), and... that's all I can think of right now. Good luck, J-D On Wed, Aug 3, 2011 at 1:08 AM, Steinmaurer Thomas <thomas.steinmau...@scch.at> wrote: > Hello, > > > > we are in process running our first load test on a Cloudera test cluster > with 8 region servers.
