Default Parameters for HiveServer2MetaConnTest

This test monitors the usage of the connection pools on the Metastore of the target Apache Hive data warehouse. Besides, this test accurately pinpoints the connection pool that is being over-utilized and hence running out of free connections. In the process, this test also reports the average time taken for a connection to be granted from each connection pool. Using this test, administrators can easily figure out the connection pool that is busy.

This page depicts the default parameters that need to be configured for the HiveServer2MetaConnTest test.

• The TEST PERIOD list box helps the user to decide how often this test needs to be executed.

• In the HOST text box, specify the IP address of the target server that is being monitored.

• By default, the SSL flag is set to False, indicating that the target Apache Hive is not SSL-enabled by default. To enable the test to connect to an SSL-enabled Apache Hive, set the SSL flag to True.

• Once the above values are provided, click on the UPDATE button to register the changes made.

When changing default configurations of tests, the values with “$” indicate variables that will be replaced by the eG system according to the specific server being managed - for instance, $hostName is the host/nickname of the target host, $port is the port number of the server being monitored. E.g., for a server xyz:80, $hostName will be changed automatically by the eG manager to “xyz*” and $port will be changed to “80” when configuring a test.
