Listing available metrics

The full set of available metrics for a Kudu server can be dumped using a special command line flag:

$ kudu-tserver --dump_metrics_json
$ kudu-master --dump_metrics_json

This will output a large JSON document. Each metric indicates its name, label, description, units, and type. Because the output is JSON-formatted, this information can easily be parsed and fed into other tooling which collects metrics from Kudu servers.

If you are using Cloudera Manager, see Cloudera Manager metrics for Kudu for the complete list of metrics collected by Cloudera Manager for a Kudu service.
