NodeManager Health Tests

NodeManager Audit Pipeline Test

This NodeManager health test checks that the Auditing for the NodeManager role is getting processed correctly and is not blocked. A failure of this health test may indicate a problem with the audit pipeline of NodeManager process. This test can fail either because the Cloudera Audit Server is not accepting audits, or the Cloudera Manager Agent on the NodeManager host isn't able to send audits because of some network issue. Check the Cloudera Manager Agent logs and Cloudera Audit Server logs for more details. This test can be enabled or disabled using the Navigator Audit Pipeline Health Check NodeManager monitoring setting.

NodeManager Process Status

This NodeManager health test checks that the Cloudera Manager Agent on the NodeManager host is heart beating correctly and that the process associated with the NodeManager role is in the state expected by Cloudera Manager. A failure of this health test may indicate a problem with the NodeManager process, a lack of connectivity to the Cloudera Manager Agent on the NodeManager host, or a problem with the Cloudera Manager Agent. This test can fail either because the NodeManager has crashed or because the NodeManager will not start or stop in a timely fashion. Check the NodeManager logs for more details. If the test fails because of problems communicating with the Cloudera Manager Agent on the NodeManager host, check the status of the Cloudera Manager Agent by running /etc/init.d/cloudera-scm-agent status on the NodeManager host, or look in the Cloudera Manager Agent logs on the NodeManager host for more details. This test can be enabled or disabled using the NodeManager Process Health Test NodeManager monitoring setting.

NodeManager Unexpected Exits

This NodeManager health test checks that the NodeManager has not recently exited unexpectedly. The test returns "Bad" health if the number of unexpected exits exceeds a critical threshold. For example, if this test is configured with a critical threshold of 1, this test returns "Good" health if there have been no unexpected exits recently. If 1 or more unexpected exits occured recently, this test returns "Bad" health. The test also indicates whether any of the exits were caused by an OutOfMemory error if the Cloudera Manager Kill When Out of Memory monitoring setting is enabled. This test can be configured using the Unexpected Exits Thresholds and Unexpected Exits Monitoring Period NodeManager monitoring settings.

NodeManager Web Server Status

This health test checks that the role's web server is responding quickly to requests by the Cloudera Manager Agent, and that the Cloudera Manager Agent can collect metrics from the web server. Failure of this health test may indicate a problem with the web server of the NodeManager, a misconfiguration of the NodeManager, or a problem with the Cloudera Manager Agent. Consult the Cloudera Manager Agent logs and the logs of the NodeManager for more detail. If the test failure message indicates a communication problem, the Cloudera Manager Agent's HTTP requests to the NodeManager's web server are failing or timing out. If the test's failure message indicates an unexpected response, the NodeManager's web server responded to the Cloudera Manager Agent's request, but the response could not be interpreted for some reason. This test can be configured using the Web Metric Collection NodeManager monitoring setting.
