Using MBeans to evaluate DSE Search performance

Use JConsole to view JMX metrics and operations exposed by DSE.

To use the MBeans to obtain information about performance on a DSE Search node:

Procedure

Start a single DSE Search node.
Find the process ID (PID) of the DSE Search node:
```
pgrep -f dse
```
```
368
668
45706
```
Verify the PID of the DSE Search node:
```
pgrep -f cassandra 45706
```
where 45706 is the correct PID for DSE and Cassandra.
Start JConsole using the PID of the DSE Search node:
```
jconsole 45706
```
In JConsole, connect to a DSE Search node. For example, connect to the Local Process com.datastax.bdp.DseModule.

Results
