Jun Rao commented on KAFKA-1481: -------------------------------- Thinking about his a bit more, I agree with [~jjkoshy] that (3) is probably the best choice. It's the simplest. Also, if you look at a metric like the following, it should be clear that the request rate is for a particular client, aggregated. There are different ways that this metrics can be broken down. However, that information shouldn't need to be included in the aggregate metrics. kafka.consumer:type=FetchRequestAndResponseMetrics,name=FetchRequestRateAndTimeMs,clientId=console-consumer-50964 We can probably keep the name BrokerTopicMetrics so that it can be distinguished from ConsumerTopicMetrics and ProducerTopicMetrics. [~vladimir.tretyakov], are you ok with this approach? > Stop using dashes AND underscores as separators in MBean names > -------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: KAFKA-1481 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-1481 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: Bug > Components: core > Affects Versions: 0.8.1.1 > Reporter: Otis Gospodnetic > Priority: Critical > Labels: patch > Fix For: 0.8.3 > > Attachments: KAFKA-1481_2014-06-06_13-06-35.patch, > KAFKA-1481_2014-10-13_18-23-35.patch, KAFKA-1481_2014-10-14_21-53-35.patch, > KAFKA-1481_2014-10-15_10-23-35.patch, KAFKA-1481_2014-10-20_23-14-35.patch, > KAFKA-1481_2014-10-21_09-14-35.patch, KAFKA-1481_2014-10-30_21-35-43.patch, > KAFKA-1481_2014-10-31_14-35-43.patch, > KAFKA-1481_2014-11-03_16-39-41_doc.patch, > KAFKA-1481_2014-11-03_17-02-23.patch, > KAFKA-1481_2014-11-10_20-39-41_doc.patch, > KAFKA-1481_2014-11-10_21-02-23.patch, > KAFKA-1481_IDEA_IDE_2014-10-14_21-53-35.patch, > KAFKA-1481_IDEA_IDE_2014-10-15_10-23-35.patch, > KAFKA-1481_IDEA_IDE_2014-10-20_20-14-35.patch, > KAFKA-1481_IDEA_IDE_2014-10-20_23-14-35.patch, alternateLayout1.png, > alternateLayout2.png, diff-for-alternate-layout1.patch, > diff-for-alternate-layout2.patch, originalLayout.png > > > MBeans should not use dashes or underscores as separators because these > characters are allowed in hostnames, topics, group and consumer IDs, etc., > and these are embedded in MBeans names making it impossible to parse out > individual bits from MBeans. > Perhaps a pipe character should be used to avoid the conflict. > This looks like a major blocker because it means nobody can write Kafka 0.8.x > monitoring tools unless they are doing it for themselves AND do not use > dashes AND do not use underscores. > See: http://search-hadoop.com/m/4TaT4lonIW -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
