Collecting cluster summary diagnostics

The following cluster summary diagnostic tables collect statistics at a cluster-wide level:

Where is the dse.yaml file?

The location of the dse.yaml file depends on the type of installation:

Installation Type Location

Installation Type	Location
Package installations + Installer-Services installations	`/etc/dse/dse.yaml`
Tarball installations + Installer-No Services installations	`<installation_location>/resources/dse/conf/dse.yaml`

Package installations + Installer-Services installations

/etc/dse/dse.yaml

Tarball installations + Installer-No Services installations

<installation_location>/resources/dse/conf/dse.yaml

Procedure

To enable collecting cluster summary diagnostics using the DataStax Enterprise Performance Service:

In the dse.yaml file, set the enabled option for cluster_summary_stats_options to true.

# Cluster summary stats options
cluster_summary_stats_options:
    enabled: true
    refresh_rate_ms: 10000

Optional: To control how often the statistics are refreshed, increase or decrease the refresh_rate_ms parameter.

The refresh_rate_ms specifies the length of the sampling period, that is, the frequency with which this data is updated.
