dsetool insights_config
Enables and disables DSE Metrics Collector and configures reporting frequency and storage options. The default mode enables metrics collection and reporting with local storage on disk.
|
Run this command only on a single node. The change is propagated to all other nodes in the cluster. Wait at least 30 seconds for the changes to propagate to all nodes. Restarting DSE is not required. |

Prints the current configuration for DSE Metrics Collector.
- --mode DISABLED|ENABLED_NO_STORAGE|ENABLED_WITH_LOCAL_STORAGE
-
Enables and disables DSE Metrics Collector and configures storage options:
-
DISABLED- disables metrics collection. -
ENABLED_NO_STORAGE- enables metrics collection and starts reporting metrics. Typically used when collectd is configured to report to a real-time monitoring system. -
ENABLED_WITH_LOCAL_STORAGE- enables metrics collection and reporting with local storage on disk. The default data directory is/var/lib/cassandra/insights_data. Default.
Restarting DSE is not required after changing the configuration mode. The configuration mode persists after DSE is restarted.
-
- --metric_sampling_interval_in_seconds seconds
-
The frequency that metrics are reported to DSE Metrics Collector.
Default:
30 - --config_refresh_interval_in_seconds seconds
-
How often the DSE Metrics Collector configuration changes are pushed to all nodes in the cluster. If nodes are down when a change is made, the change will propagate when the node is back up.
Default:
30 - --data_dir_max_size_in_mb mb
-
When local storage is enabled, the limit on how much DSE Metrics Collector data will be stored on disk. The maximum size of the data directory must not exceed 2 GB.
Default:
1024(1 GB) - --node_system_info_report_period duration
-
The repeating time interval, in ISO-8601 format, for gathering diagnostic information about the node. For example, PT1H is 1 hour, PT5M is 5 minutes, and PTM200S is 200 seconds.
Default:
PT1H(1 hour)
