Excluding keyspaces and tables from data collection
By default, OpsCenter does not collect performance data for its own keyspace or the
Cassandra system keyspace. You can manually add any other keyspaces or tables that you do
not want to monitor in the [cassandra_metrics] section of the
cluster_name.conf configuration file.
cluster_name.conf
The location of the cluster_name.conf file depends on the type of installation:- Package installations: /etc/opscenter/clusters/cluster_name.conf
- Tarball installations: install_location/conf/clusters/cluster_name.conf
By default, OpsCenter does not collect performance data for its own keyspace or the Cassandra
system keyspace. You can manually add any other keyspaces or tables that you do not want
to monitor in the [cassandra_metrics] section of the
cluster_name.conf configuration file.
For example, to prevent data collection for the keyspace test as well
as the table Keyspace1.Standard1, uncomment and edit the following
values in the OpsCenter cluster configuration file
(cluster_name.conf):
[cassandra_metrics]
ignored_keyspaces = system, OpsCenter, test
ignored_column_families = Keyspace1.Standard1
<keyspace_name>.<column_family_name>.
