Impala Daemon Remote Procedure Calls for Hiveserver2 Server Test

How often should the test be executed.

The IP address of the target server that is being monitored.

The port number through which the Apache Impala communicates. The default port is 25000.

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.

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 an Impalad URL is password protected (i.e., username and password configured through Cloudera Manager), then specify the value as digest_auth in the Impalad Authorization type text box. Here, digest_auth stands for Digest Authorization

• If an Impalad URL is not password protected, then specify the value as no_auth in the Impalad Authorization type text box. Here, no_auth stands for No Authorization.

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.

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.

• If an Impalad URL is password protected (i.e., username and password configured through Cloudera Manager), then specify the configured username in the Impalad User text box.

• If an Impalad URL is not password protected, then specify the value as none in the Impalad User text box.

• An Impala daemon server can have multiple IP addresses. In this case, specify the corresponding URL parameter with a comma-separated list of endpoint URLs in the Impalad User textbox.

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.

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:

• If a Statestored URL is password protected (i.e., username and password configured through Cloudera Manager), then specify the value as digest_auth in the Statestored Authorization type text box. Here, digest_auth stands for Digest Authorization

• If an Statestored URL is not password protected, then specify the value as no_auth in the Statestored Authorization type text box. Here, no_auth stands for No Authorization.

By default, Statestored Authorization type value is no_auth.

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.

• If a Statestored URL is password protected (i.e., username and password configured through Cloudera Manager), then specify the configured username in the Statestored User text box.

• If a Statestored URL is not password protected, then specify the value as none in the Statestored User text box.

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.

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:

• If a Catalogd URL is password protected (i.e., username and password configured through Cloudera Manager), then specify the value as digest_auth in the Catalogd Authorization type text box. Here, digest_auth stands for Digest Authorization

• If an Catalogd URL is not password protected, then specify the value as no_auth in the Catalogd Authorization type text box. Here, no_auth stands for No Authorization.

By default, Statestored Authorization type value is no_auth.
