- Administering Volumes
  This section provide information about how to organize and manage data using volumes, a unique feature of HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric clusters.
- Administering Files and Directories
- Administering Tables
  Administration of the HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric Database is done primarily via the command line (maprcli) or with the Managed Control System (MCS). Regardless of whether the HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric Database table is used for binary files or JSON documents, the same types of commands are used with slightly different parameter options. HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric Database administration is associated with tables, columns and column families, and table regions.
- Administering Streams
- Administering Data Fabric Gateways
  A HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric gateway mediates one-way communication between a source HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric cluster and a destination cluster. You can replicate HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric Database tables (binary and JSON) and HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric Streams streams. HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric gateways also apply updates from JSON tables to their secondary indexes and propagate Change Data Capture (CDC) logs.
- Administering Services

  - Monitoring Using the Control System and the CLI
    Describes the Overview page in the Control System, which displays information about the cluster.
    - Setting the Refresh Rate on the Control System
      Explains how to configure the user inactivity timeout setting, graph and data refresh settings from the Control System.
    - Setting Timer to End Session for Inactive User
      Describes how to set the user inactivity timer to auto-terminate an inactive Control System user session.
    - Customizing the List of Metric Charts and Columns on the Control System
      Explains how to customize the list of metric charts and columns on the Control System.
    - Monitoring the Cluster
      Explains how to view the cluster health, disk, memory, CPU utilization metrics, and alarms on the cluster using either the Control System or the CLI.
    - Monitoring Nodes
      Explains how to monitor nodes using either the Control System or the CLI.
    - Monitoring YARN
    - Monitoring Volumes
      Explains how to monitor volume parameters using the Control System.
      - Collecting Volume Metrics
        Describes how to enable and collect operational metrics for volumes.
      - Enabling Volume Metric Collection
        Describes how to enable metric collection for a volume, and gather volume statistics.
    - Monitoring Tables
      Explains how to monitor table alarms and view table metrics in the Control System.
    - Monitoring Streams
      Explains how to monitor streams using either the Control System or the CLI.
    - Monitoring Alarms
      Provides an overview of how to monitor alarms using the Control Panel and the CLI.
    - Monitoring Errors
      Explains how to monitor errors using the Control System.
  - Using HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric Monitoring (Spyglass Initiative)
    HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric Monitoring (part of the Spyglass initiative) provides the ability to collect, store, and view metrics and logs for nodes, services, and jobs/applications.
  - Configuring Data Fabric to Track User Behavior
    Describes how to configure Data Fabric to track user behavior.
- Configuring Security
  Describes how to configure security and manage secure clusters.
- Managing Secure Clusters
  Provides procedures that will enable you to use Data Fabric clusters securely.
- Administering the Data Access Gateway
  The HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric Data Access Gateway is a service that acts as a proxy and gateway for translating requests between lightweight client applications and the HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric cluster. This section describes considerations when upgrading the service, how to modify configuration settings, and how to administer and manage the service.
- Planning for High Availability
- Administrator's Reference
  This section contains in-depth reference information for the administrator.
- Troubleshooting Cluster Administration
  Lists the common errors and their solutions.
- Best Practices for Backing Up HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric Information
  Lists the best practices and performance considerations to follow when backing up HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric information.
- IPv6 Support in Data Fabric
  Describes the IPv6 support feature for Data Fabric.
7.9.0 Development
This section contains information related to application development for Ezmeral ecosystem components and HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric products, including the file system, Database (Key-Value and JSON), and Event Streams.

Monitoring Volumes

Explains how to monitor volume parameters using the Control System.

About this task

You can monitor volume:

Monitoring Volume Disk Usage Using the Control System

Procedure

You can view:

Volumes that use the most amount of allocated disk space in the Top Volume Utilization pane under Data > Volumes.
NOTE
The Volumes page is under the Volumes menu on the Kubernetes version of the Control System.
Disk usage trend for a volume in the Usage Trends pane in the Summary tab of the volume information page. You can select a preset (shown in the following screenshot) or specify a custom time range (shown in the following screenshot). You can zoom in (by clicking and dragging the cursor in the pane) for a more granular view. Click Reset Zoom to zoom out and return to selected date/time range view.

NOTE

The metrics collection infrastructure must be installed during installation to visualize the metrics in the various panes. If the metrics collection infrastructure is not installed, perform an Incremental Install to view the charts described here.

Monitoring Volume Alarms in the Control System

About this task

See Viewing Active Volume Alarms.

Monitoring Local and Remote Storage for Volumes

About this task

You can view the following storage utilization metrics for tiered volumes in the Data > Volumes > Local & Remote Usage pane.

NOTE

The Volumes page is under the Volumes menu on the Kubernetes version of the Control System.

Local — The total disk space (in GB) used (before compression) for the volumes in the HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric cluster. This value does not include erasure-coded backend volumes and cache-volumes because their logical usage is already accounted for by the front-end and parent volumes respectively.
Cold Offloaded — The total physical data (in GB) offloaded to the cold tier. This is calculated using the following: amount of data purged from the hot tier (HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric cluster) + amount of data recalled to the hot tier (HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric cluster).
Warm Offloaded — The total physical data (in GB) offloaded to the erasure coded volume (warm tier). This is calculated using the following: amount of data purged from the hot tier (HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric cluster) + amount of data recalled to the hot tier (HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric cluster).
