dsetool perf
Temporarily changes the running parameters for the CQL Performance Service.
dse.yaml
The location of the dse.yaml file depends on the type of installation:| Package installations | /etc/dse/dse.yaml |
| Tarball installations | installation_location/resources/dse/conf/dse.yaml |
Temporarily changes the running parameters for the CQL Performance Service. Histogram tables provide DSE statistics that can be queried with CQL.
Changes made with performance object subcommands do not persist between restarts and are useful only for short-term diagnostics.See and .
Synopsis
dsetool perf subcommand values
| Syntax conventions | Description |
|---|---|
| UPPERCASE | Literal keyword. |
| Lowercase | Not literal. |
Italics |
Variable value. Replace with a valid option or user-defined value. |
[ ] |
Optional. Square brackets ( [ ] ) surround optional command
arguments. Do not type the square brackets. |
( ) |
Group. Parentheses ( ( ) ) identify a group to choose from. Do
not type the parentheses. |
| |
Or. A vertical bar ( | ) separates alternative elements. Type
any one of the elements. Do not type the vertical bar. |
... |
Repeatable. An ellipsis ( ... ) indicates that you can repeat
the syntax element as often as required. |
'Literal string' |
Single quotation ( ' ) marks must surround literal strings in
CQL statements. Use single quotation marks to preserve upper case. |
{ key:value } |
Map collection. Braces ( { } ) enclose map collections or key
value pairs. A colon separates the key and the value. |
<datatype1,datatype2> |
Set, list, map, or tuple. Angle brackets ( < > ) enclose
data types in a set, list, map, or tuple. Separate the data types with a comma.
|
cql_statement; |
End CQL statement. A semicolon ( ; ) terminates all CQL
statements. |
[ -- ] |
Separate the command line options from the command arguments with two hyphens (
-- ). This syntax is useful when arguments might be mistaken for
command line options. |
' <schema> ... </schema>
' |
Search CQL only: Single quotation marks ( ' ) surround an entire
XML schema declaration. |
@xml_entity='xml_entity_type' |
Search CQL only: Identify the entity and literal value to overwrite the XML element in the schema and solrconfig files. |
- clustersummary enable|disable
- Whether to enable the collection of database-level statistics for the cluster.
- cqlslowlog enable|disable
- Whether to enable the collection of CQL queries that exceed the specified time threshold.
- cqlslowlog threshold
- The CQL slow log threshold as a percentile of the actual request times:
- [0,1] is a percentile threshold
- >1 is an absolute threshold in milliseconds
- 1.0 logs no queries
- 99.9 logs 0.1% of the slowest queries
- 95.0 logs 5% of the slowest queries
- 50.0 logs 50% of the slowest queries
- 0.0 logs all queries
- cqlslowlog skip_writing_to_db
- Keeps slow queries in-memory only.
- cqlslowlog write_to_db
- Writes data to the database. When data writes to the database, the threshold must be
>= 2000 ms to prevent a high load on database.
Temporary equivalent of cql_slow_log_options.skip_writing_to_db: false setting in dse.yaml.
- cqlslowlog set_num_slowest_queries
- The number of slow queries to keep in-memory.
- cqlslowlog recent_slowest_queries
- The specified number of the most recent slow queries to retrieve.
- cqlsysteminfo enable|disable
- Whether to collect CQL system performance information statistics.
- dbsummary enable|disable
- Whether to collect database summary statistics.
- histograms enable|disable
- Whether to collect table histograms that measure the distribution of values in a stream of data. Histogram tables provide DSE statistics that can be queried with CQL. The data in the diagnostic histogram tables is cumulative since the DSE server was started.
- resourcelatencytracking enable|disable
- Whether to collect resource latency tracking statistics.
- solrcachestats enable|disable
- Whether to collect Solr cache statistics.
- solrindexingerrorlog enable|disable
- Whether to log Solr indexing errors.
- solrindexstats enable|disable
- Whether to collect Solr indexing statistics.
- solrlatencysnapshots enable|disable
- Whether to collect Solr latency snapshots.
- solrrequesthandlerstats enable|disable
- Whether to collect Solr request handler statistics.
- solrslowlog threshold enable|disable
- Whether to log the Solr slow sub-query log and set the Solr slow log threshold in milliseconds.
- solrupdatehandlerstats enable|disable
- Whether to collect Solr update handler statistics.
- userlatencytracking enable|disable
- Whether to enable user latency tracking.
Examples
These example commands make temporarily changes only. Changes made with performance object subcommands do not persist between restarts and are useful only for short-term diagnostics.
See .
