Configuration of HiveServer2ConnTest

With the help of the metrics reported by this test, administrators can determine whether/not the warehouse has sufficient connections to handle subsequent connection requests. Based on these insights, administrators can plan the future connection capacity of the warehouse.

This page depicts the default parameters that need to be configured for the HiveServer2ConnTest 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 host for which this test is to be configured.

• In the PORT text box, specify port number through which the Apache Hive communicates. The default port is 10002.

• 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.

• The DD Frequency refers to the frequency with which detailed diagnosis measures are to be generated for this test. The default is 1:1. This indicates that, by default, detailed measures will be generated every time the test runs, and also every time the test detects a problem. You can modify this frequency, if you so desire. Also, if you intend to disable the detailed diagnosis capability for this test, you can do so by specifying none against DD Frequency.

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

When changing the configuration for specific servers, a “*” beside the text box corresponding to the parameter signifies that these values have to be manually configured by the user. The parameter values that require to be configured will typically be prefixed with a “$” or contain a series of “*”. A value of “none” in the parameter value indicates that the corresponding parameter value can be changed if required.
