Role Triggers The configured triggers for this role. This is a JSON formatted list of triggers. These triggers are evaluated as part as the health system. Every trigger expression is parsed, and if the trigger condition is met, the list of actions provided in the trigger expression is executed. Each trigger has all of the following fields:
  • triggerName (mandatory) - The name of the trigger. This value must be unique for the specific role.
  • triggerExpression (mandatory) - A tsquery expression representing the trigger.
  • streamThreshold (optional) - The maximum number of streams that can satisfy a condition of a trigger before the condition fires. By default set to 0, and any stream returned causes the condition to fire.
  • enabled (optional) - By default set to 'true'. If set to 'false', the trigger will not be evaluated.
  • expressionEditorConfig (optional) - Metadata for the trigger editor. If present, the trigger should only be edited from the Edit Trigger page; editing the trigger here may lead to inconsistencies.
For example, the following JSON formatted trigger configured for a DataNode fires if the DataNode has more than 1500 file-descriptors opened:[{"triggerName": "sample-trigger", "triggerExpression": "IF (SELECT fd_open WHERE roleName=$ROLENAME and last(fd_open) > 1500) DO health:bad", "streamThreshold": 0, "enabled": "true"}]See the trigger rules documentation for more details on how to write triggers using tsquery.The JSON format is evolving and may change in the future and, as a result, backward compatibility is not guaranteed between releases at this time.

Enable Audit Collection Enable collection of audit events from the service's roles. true navigator_audit_enabled false
Audit Event Filter Event filters are defined in a JSON object like the following: { "defaultAction" : ("accept", "discard"), "rules" : [ { "action" : ("accept", "discard"), "fields" : [ { "name" : "fieldName", "match" : "regex" } ] } ] } A filter has a default action and a list of rules, in order of precedence. Each rule defines an action, and a list of fields to match against the audit event. A rule is "accepted" if all the listed field entries match the audit event. At that point, the action declared by the rule is taken. If no rules match the event, the default action is taken. Actions default to "accept" if not defined in the JSON object. The following is the list of fields that can be filtered for Impala events:
  • userName: the user performing the action.
  • ipAddress: the IP from where the request originated.
  • operation: the Impala operation being performed.
  • databaseName: the databaseName for the operation.
  • tableName: the tableName for the operation.
navigator.event.filter navigator_audit_event_filter false
Audit Queue Policy Action to take when the audit event queue is full. Drop the event or shutdown the affected process. navigator.batch.queue_policy DROP navigator_audit_queue_policy false
Audit Event Tracker Configures the rules for event tracking and coalescing. This feature is used to define equivalency between different audit events. When events match, according to a set of configurable parameters, only one entry in the audit list is generated for all the matching events. Tracking works by keeping a reference to events when they first appear, and comparing other incoming events against the "tracked" events according to the rules defined here. Event trackers are defined in a JSON object like the following: { "timeToLive" : [integer], "fields" : [ { "type" : [string], "name" : [string] } ] } Where:
  • timeToLive: maximum amount of time an event will be tracked, in milliseconds. Must be provided. This defines how long, since it's first seen, an event will be tracked. A value of 0 disables tracking.
  • fields: list of fields to compare when matching events against tracked events.
Each field has an evaluator type associated with it. The evaluator defines how the field data is to be compared. The following evaluators are available:
  • value: uses the field value for comparison.
  • userName: treats the field value as a userName, and ignores any host-specific data. This is useful for environment using Kerberos, so that only the principal name and realm are compared.
The following is the list of fields that can be used to compare Impala events:
  • operation: the Sentry operation being performed.
  • username: the user performing the action.
  • ipAddress: the IP from where the request originated.
  • allowed: whether the operation was allowed or denied.
  • databaseName: the database affected by the operation.
  • tableName: the table affected by the operation.
  • objectType: the type of object affected by the operation.
  • privilege: the privilege associated with the operation.

Impala Query Aggregates Controls the aggregate metrics generated for Impala queries. The structure is a JSON list of the attributes to aggregate and the entities to aggregate to. For example, if the attributeName is 'hdfs_bytes_read' and the aggregationTargets is ['USER'] then the Service Monitor will create the metric 'impala_query_hdfs_bytes_read_rate' and, every ten minutes, will record the total hdfs bytes read for each user across all their Impala queries. By default it will also record the number of queries issues ('num_impala_queries_rate') for both users and pool. For a full list of the supported attributes see the Impala search page. Note that the valid aggregation targets are USER, YARN_POOL, and IMPALA (the service), and that these aggregate metrics can be viewed on both the reports and charts search pages. [ attributeName: hdfs_bytes_read, aggregationTargets: [USER, YARN_POOL, IMPALA] , attributeName: hdfs_bytes_written, aggregationTargets: [USER, YARN_POOL, IMPALA] , attributeName: thread_cpu_time, aggregationTargets: [USER, YARN_POOL, IMPALA] , attributeName: bytes_streamed, aggregationTargets: [USER, YARN_POOL, IMPALA] , attributeName: cm_cpu_milliseconds, aggregationTargets: [USER] , attributeName: query_duration, aggregationTargets: [USER, YARN_POOL, IMPALA] ] impala_query_aggregates false

Service Triggers The configured triggers for this service. This is a JSON formatted list of triggers. These triggers are evaluated as part as the health system. Every trigger expression is parsed, and if the trigger condition is met, the list of actions provided in the trigger expression is executed. Each trigger has all of the following fields:
  • triggerName (mandatory) - The name of the trigger. This value must be unique for the specific service.
  • triggerExpression (mandatory) - A tsquery expression representing the trigger.
  • streamThreshold (optional) - The maximum number of streams that can satisfy a condition of a trigger before the condition fires. By default set to 0, and any stream returned causes the condition to fire.
  • enabled (optional) - By default set to 'true'. If set to 'false', the trigger will not be evaluated.
  • expressionEditorConfig (optional) - Metadata for the trigger editor. If present, the trigger should only be edited from the Edit Trigger page; editing the trigger here may lead to inconsistencies.
For example, the followig JSON formatted trigger fires if there are more than 10 DataNodes with more than 500 file-descriptors opened:[{"triggerName": "sample-trigger", "triggerExpression": "IF (SELECT fd_open WHERE roleType = DataNode and last(fd_open) > 500) DO health:bad", "streamThreshold": 10, "enabled": "true"}]See the trigger rules documentation for more details on how to write triggers using tsquery.The JSON format is evolving and may change in the future and, as a result, backward compatibility is not guaranteed between releases at this time.

LDAP URI The URI of the LDAP server to use if LDAP is enabled. The URI must be prefixed with ldap:// or ldaps://. The URI can optionally specify the port, for example: ldap://ldap_server.example.com:389. ldaps:// is only supported in Impala 1.4 or CDH 5.1 or higher, and usually requires that you specify a port. ldap_uri impala_ldap_uri false

LDAP BaseDN When set, this parameter is used to convert the username into the LDAP Distinguished Name (DN), so that the resulting DN looks like uid=username,X. For example, if this parameter is set to "ou=People,dc=cloudera,dc=com", and the username passed in is "mike", the resulting authentication passed to the LDAP server looks like "uid=mike,ou=People,dc=cloudera,dc=com". This parameter is frequently useful when authenticating against an OpenLDAP server. This parameter is mutually exclusive with LDAP Domain and LDAP Pattern. ldap_baseDN ldap_baseDN false
LDAP Pattern When set, this parameter allows arbitrary mapping from usernames into a Distinguished Name (DN). The string specified must have a placeholder named "#UID" inside it, and that #UID is replaced with the username. For example, you could mimic the behavior of LDAP BaseDN by specifying "uid=#UID,ou=People,dc=cloudera,dc=com". When the username of "mike" comes in, it replaces the #UID and the result is "uid=mike,ou=People,dc=cloudera,dc=com". This option should be used when more control over the DN is needed. This parameter is mutually exclusive with LDAP Domain and LDAP BaseDN. ldap_bind_pattern ldap_bind_pattern false
LDAP Domain When set, this value is appended to all usernames before authenticating with the LDAP server. For example, if this parameter is set to "my.domain.com", and the user authenticating to the Impala daemon is "mike", then "mike@my.domain.com" is passed to the LDAP server. If this field is unset, the username remains unaltered before being passed to the LDAP server. This parameter is mutually exclusive with LDAP BaseDN and LDAP Pattern. ldap_domain ldap_domain false
