Impala Daemon Remote Procedure Calls for Statestore Subscriber Server Test
In Statestore Subscriber server, Impala Daemons frequently exchange large volumes of data with other Impala Daemons in the cluster. This communication between the Impala Daemons happen through remote procedure calls (RPCs). This test reports the number of Remote Procedure Calls for Statestore Subscriber server and alerts the administrators when there is an abnormal increase in the count of these calls.
Agent deploying the test : An internal/remote agent
Outputs of the test : One set of results for each Statestore Subscriber: service in the target Impala Daemon server.
Parameter | Description |
---|---|
Test period |
How often should the test be executed. |
Host |
The IP address of the target server that is being monitored. |
Port |
The port number through which the Apache Impala communicates. The default port is 25000. |
Impalad URL |
Each daemon server has a different endpoint URL. You need to configure the eG agent with the endpoint URL of each daemon, so that the agent can access the URL and pull metrics on the health of the target daemon servers. Specify such URL in the Impalad URL text box . To know how to configure the eG agent with the API Endpoint URLs, refer to Configuring the eG agent with the API Endpoint URLs topic in Pre-requisites for Monitoring Apache Impala. |
Impalad Authorization type |
To access daemon server, you need to configure Digest authorization. Digest authorization is a method used to verify the identity of a user requesting access to API Endpoint URL of the daemon server. Digest authorization uses a combination of a username, password, and a unique message digest (a type of encrypted code). Specify such Digest authorization value in the Impalad Authorization type text box considering the below criteria:
If multiple Impalad URLs are mentioned in the Impalad URL text box, then specify a comma-separated list of authorization type for each URL. For example, if there are two Impalad URLs, one URL without authorization and the other URL protected with authorization (username/password authorization), then specify Impalad Authorization type as: no_auth,digest_auth in the Impalad Authorization type text box. By default, Impalad Authorization type value is no_auth. |
Impalad User, Impalad Password and Confirm Password |
Once you enable web server access to the eG agent, make sure that 'password authentication' is also enabled. This is needed, so that the eG agent is able to access the built-in web server for each daemon in a safe, secure manner. Configure the credentials of such a user against Impalad User and Password text boxes. Confirm the password by retyping it in the Confirm Password text box. To know how to configure the eG agent with 'secure' access to the built-in web server, refer to Configuring the eG agent with 'secure' access to the built-in web server topic in Pre-requisites for Monitoring Apache Impala. By default, Impalad user parameter is set to none.

Statestored URL |
Each daemon server has a different endpoint URL. You need to configure the eG agent with the endpoint URL of each daemon, so that the agent can access the URL and pull metrics on the health of the target daemon servers. Specify such URL in the Statestored URL text box . To know how to configure the eG agent with the API Endpoint URLs, refer to Configuring the eG agent with the API Endpoint URLs topic in Pre-requisites for Monitoring Apache Impala. |
Statestored Authorization type |
To access daemon server, you need to configure Digest authorization. Digest authorization is a method used to verify the identity of a user requesting access to API Endpoint URL of the daemon server. Digest authorization uses a combination of a username, password, and a unique message digest (a type of encrypted code). Specify such Digest authorization value in the Statestored Authorization type text box considering the below criteria:
By default, Statestored Authorization type value is no_auth. |
Statestored User, Statestored Password and Confirm Password |
Once you enable web server access to the eG agent, make sure that 'password authentication' is also enabled. This is needed, so that the eG agent is able to access the built-in web server for each daemon in a safe, secure manner. Configure the credentials of such a user against Statestored User and Password text boxes. Confirm the password by retyping it in the Confirm Password text box. To know how to configure the eG agent with 'secure' access to the built-in web server, refer to Configuring the eG agent with 'secure' access to the built-in web server topic in Pre-requisites for Monitoring Apache Impala. By default, Impalad user parameter is set to none.

Catalogd URL |
Each daemon server has a different endpoint URL. You need to configure the eG agent with the endpoint URL of each daemon, so that the agent can access the URL and pull metrics on the health of the target daemon servers. Specify such URL in the Catalogd URL text box . To know how to configure the eG agent with the API Endpoint URLs, refer to Configuring the eG agent with the API Endpoint URLs topic in Pre-requisites for Monitoring Apache Impala. |
Catalogd Authorization type |
To access daemon server, you need to configure Digest authorization. Digest authorization is a method used to verify the identity of a user requesting access to API Endpoint URL of the daemon server. Digest authorization uses a combination of a username, password, and a unique message digest (a type of encrypted code). Specify such Digest authorization value in the Catalogd Authorization type text box considering the below criteria:
By default, Statestored Authorization type value is no_auth. |
Catalogd User, Catalogd Password and Confirm Password |
Once you enable web server access to the eG agent, make sure that 'password authentication' is also enabled. This is needed, so that the eG agent is able to access the built-in web server for each daemon in a safe, secure manner. Configure the credentials of such a user against Catalogd User and Password text boxes. Confirm the password by retyping it in the Confirm Password text box. To know how to configure the eG agent with 'secure' access to the built-in web server, refer to Configuring the eG agent with 'secure' access to the built-in web server topic in Pre-requisites for Monitoring Apache Impala. By default, Impalad user parameter is set to none.
