Data Collection Setup

HBase emit Hadoop metrics via Java Management Extensions (JMX) that are specific to HBase deployments.

HBase can be configured for either Standalone or in a Distributed configuration. Set this to the correct setting during the Source configuration.

JMX Service URL or Host & Port are the two collection configurations.

JMX needs to be enabled on the master and region servers.

JMX needs to be enabled on the master and region servers. Or only Master in the case of a standalone installation.

These are required to enable metric collection. Follow the instructions for enabling metric collection:

For Distributed Environments, JMX monitoring has to be enabled on the Master and Region servers.

service:jmx:rmi:///jndi/rmi://c7-hbase-1.bluemedora.localnet:10101/jmxrmi

JMX Read-only user with monitor permissions.
See https://hbase.apache.org/metrics.html for more information.

Ports for Distributed: 10102
Ports for Standalone: 10101

Minimum: 0.98, 1.x, 2.1.4
