nodetool proxyhistograms

Provides a histogram of network statistics.

Provides a histogram of network statistics at the time of the command.

Synopsis

nodetool <options> proxyhistograms
Table 1. Options
Short Long Description
-h --host Hostname or IP address.
-p --port Port number.
-pwf --password-file Password file path.
-pw --password Password.
-u --username Remote JMX agent username.
-- Separates an option from an argument that could be mistaken for a option.

Description

The output of this command shows the full request latency recorded by the coordinator. The output includes the percentile rank of read and write latency values for inter-node communication. Typically, you use the command to see if requests encounter a slow node.

Examples

This example shows the output from nodetool proxyhistograms after running 4,500 insert statements and 45,000 select statements on a three ccm node-cluster on a local computer.

In Cassandra 3.6 and later, three metrics have been added to the output:
  • CAS Read Latency
  • CAS Write Latency
  • View Write Latency
CAS Read and Write Latency provides data for Cassandra compare-and-set operations, while View Write Latency provides data for materialized view write operations. The results are slightly different from previous versions:
