  1. To view Data Collector metrics, click Administration > SDC Metrics.
    The Data Collector Metrics page displays all metrics by default.
  2. To modify the metrics that display on the page, click the More icon, and then click Settings.
  3. Remove any metric charts that you don't want to display, and then click Save.

Viewing Data Collector Logs

You can view and download log data. When you download log data, you can select the file to download.

  1. To view log data for the Data Collector, click Administration > Logs.
    The Data Collector UI displays roughly 50,000 characters of the most recent log information.
  2. To stop the automatic refresh of log data, click Stop Auto Refresh.
    Or, click Start Auto Refresh to view the latest data.
  3. To view earlier events, click Load Previous Logs.
  4. To download the latest log file, click Download. To download a specific log file, click Download > <file name>.
    The most recent information is in the file with the highest number.

Data Collector Log Format

Data Collector uses the Apache Log4j library to write log data. Each log entry includes a timestamp and message along with additional information relevant for the message.

In the Data Collector UI, each log entry has the following information:
  • Timestamp
  • Pipeline
  • Severity
  • Message
  • Category
  • User
  • Runner
  • Thread

For example:

In the downloaded log file, the log entry has the same information, presented in a different order, plus the stage that encountered the message. The downloaded file shows the information in the following order:
  • Timestamp
  • User
  • Pipeline
  • Runner
  • Thread
  • Stage
  • Severity
  • Category
  • Message
For example: 
2019-03-19 09:34:26,236 [user:admin] [pipeline:Test/TestPipeline65f67dde-faad-426d-ac47-8a2cd707f224] [runner:] [thread:webserver-430] [stage:] INFO  StandaloneAndClusterRunnerProviderImpl - Pipeline execution mode is: STANDALONE

For this message, the stage and runner are not relevant, and therefore not included in the log entry.

The information included in the downloaded file is set by the appender.streamsets.layout.pattern property in the log configuration file, $SDC_CONF/sdc-log4j2.properties. The default configuration sets this property to: 

%d{ISO8601} [user:%X{s-user}] [pipeline:%X{s-entity}] [runner:%X{s-runner}] [thread:%t] [stage:%X{s-stage}] %-5p %c{1} - %m%n
To customize the log format, see the Log4j documentation. Data Collector provides the following custom objects:
  • %X{s-entity} - Pipeline name and ID
  • %X{s-runner} - Runner ID
  • %X{s-stage} - Stage name
  • %X{s-user} - User who initiated the operation

Modifying the Log Level

If the Data Collector logs do not provide enough troubleshooting information, you can modify the log level to display messages at another severity level.

By default, Data Collector logs messages at the INFO severity level. You can configure the following log levels:
  • TRACE
  • DEBUG
  • INFO (Default)
  • WARN
  • ERROR
  • FATAL
  1. Click Administration > Logs.
  2. Click Log Config.
    Data Collector displays the contents of the log configuration file, $SDC_CONF/sdc-log4j2.properties.
  3. Change the default value of INFO for the following line in the file: 
    logger.l1.level=INFO

    For example, to set the log level to DEBUG, modify the line as follows:

    logger.l1.level=DEBUG
  4. Click Save.
    The changes that you make to the log level take effect immediately - you do not need to restart Data Collector. You can also change the log file by directly editing the log configuration file, $SDC_CONF/sdc-log4j2.properties.
    Note: For a Cloudera Manager installation, use Cloudera Manager to modify the log level. In Cloudera Manager, select the StreamSets service, then click Configuration. Click Category > Logs, and then modify the value of the Data Collector Logging Threshold property.

When you’ve finished troubleshooting, set the log level back to INFO to avoid having verbose log files.

Shutting Down Data Collector

You can shut down and then manually launch Data Collector to apply changes to the Data Collector configuration file, environment configuration file, or user logins.

Use one of the following methods to shut down Data Collector:

User interface

    If you changed or added an environment variable in the sdc-env.sh file, then you must restart Data Collector from the command prompt. Press Ctrl+C to shut down Data Collector and then enter bin/streamsets dc to restart Data Collector.

    If you did not change or add an environment variable, then you can restart Data Collector from the command prompt or from the user interface. To restart from the user interface, click Administration > Restart, expand StreamSets Data Collector was started manually, and then click Restart Data Collector.

  • Started as a service
    Run the appropriate command for your operating system:
    • For CentOS 6, Oracle Linux 6, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6, or Ubuntu 14.04 LTS, use:
      service sdc start
    • For CentOS 7, Oracle Linux 7, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7, or Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, use:
      systemctl start sdc
  • Started from Cloudera Manager

    Use Cloudera Manager to restart Data Collector. For information about how to restart a service through Cloudera Manager, see the Cloudera documentation.

  • Started from Docker

    Run the following Docker command:

    docker restart <containerID>

The restart process can take a few moments to complete. Refresh the browser to log in again.

Viewing Users and Groups

If you use file-based authentication, you can view all user accounts granted access to this Data Collector instance, including the roles and groups assigned to each user.

To view users and groups, click Administration > Users and Groups. Data Collector displays a read-only view of the users, groups, and roles.

You configure users, groups, and roles for file-based authentication in the associated realm.properties file located in the Data Collector configuration directory, $SDC_CONF. For more information, see Configuring File-Based Authentication.

Note: If the Data Collector is registered with StreamSets Control Hub and you click Administration > Users and Groups, the Data Collector logs you into Control Hub and displays the Users view within Control Hub. Registered Data Collectors use Control Hub user authorization. For more information, see Register Data Collector with Control Hub.

Managing Usage Statistics Collection

You can help to improve Data Collector by allowing StreamSets to collect usage statistics about Data Collector system performance and the features that you use. This telemetry data helps StreamSets to improve product performance and to make feature development decisions.

You can configure whether to allow usage statistics collection.

  1. Click Administration > Usage Statistics.
  2. Select the Share usage data with StreamSets checkbox to enable usage statistics collection.

    Clear the checkbox if you prefer not to share usage statistics.

  3. Click Save.

Support Bundles

You can use Data Collector to generate a support bundle. A support bundle is a ZIP file that includes Data Collector logs, environment and configuration information, pipeline JSON files, resource files, and other details to help troubleshoot issues. You upload the generated file to a StreamSets Support ticket, and the Support team can use the information to help resolve your tickets. Alternatively, you can send the file to another StreamSets community member.

Data Collector uses several generators to create a support bundle. Each generator bundles different types of information. You can choose to use all or some of the generators.

Each generator automatically redacts all passwords entered in pipelines, configuration files, or resource files. The generators replace all passwords with the text REDACTED in the generated files. You can customize the generators to redact other sensitive information, such as machine names or user names.

Before uploading a generated ZIP file to a support ticket, we recommend verifying that the file does not include any sensitive information that you do not want to share.

Generators

Data Collector can use the following generators to create a support bundle:

Generator Description
SDC Info Includes the following information:
  • Data Collector configuration files.
  • Permissions granted to users on Data Collector directories.
  • Data Collector environment configuration file.
  • Data Collector version and system properties for the machine where Data Collector is installed.
  • Data Collector runtime information including pipeline metrics and a thread dump.
Pipelines Includes the following JSON files for each pipeline:
  • history.json
  • info.json
  • offset.json
  • pipeline.json

By default, all Data Collector pipelines are included in the bundle.

Blob Store Internal blob store containing information provided by Control Hub.
Logs Includes the most recent content of the following log files:
  • Garbage collector log - gc.log
  • Data Collector log - sdc.log

In addition, Data Collector always generates the following files when you create a support bundle:

  • metadata.properties - ID and version of the Data Collector that generated the bundle.
  • generators.properties - List of generators used for the bundle.

Generating a Support Bundle

When you generate a support bundle, you choose the information to include in the bundle. Only users with the Admin role can generate support bundles.

You can download the bundle, and then verify its contents and upload it to a StreamSets Support ticket.

  1. Click the Help icon, and then click Support Bundle.
  2. Select the generators that you want to use.
  3. Click Download.

    Data Collector generates the support bundle and saves it to a ZIP file in your default downloads directory.

    You can manually upload the file to a StreamSets Support ticket.

    Before sharing the file, verify that the file does not include sensitive information that you do not want to share. For example, you might want to remove the pipelines not associated with your support ticket. By default, the bundle includes all Data Collector pipelines.

Customizing Generators

By default, the generators redact all passwords entered in pipelines, configuration files, or resource files. You can customize the generators to redact other sensitive information, such as machine names or user names.

To customize the generators, modify the support bundle redactor file, $SDC_CONF/support-bundle-redactor.json. The file contains rules that the generators use to redact sensitive information. Each rule contains the following information:

  • description - Description of the rule.
  • trigger - String constant that triggers a redaction. If a line contains this trigger string, then the redaction continues by applying the regular expression specified in the search property.
  • search - Regular expression that defines the sub-string to redact.
  • replace - String to replace the redacted information with.
You can add additional rules that the generators use to redact information. For example, to customize the generators to redact the names of all machines in the StreamSets domain, add the following rule to the file:
{
"description": "Custom domain names",
"trigger": ".streamsets.com",
"search": "[a-z_-]+.streamsets.com",
"replace": "REDACTED.streamsets.com"
}

Health Inspector

The Data Collector Health Inspector provides a snapshot of how Data Collector is functioning. When you run Health Inspector, it performs checks for common misconfigurations and errors. You can use the Health Inspector to quickly check the health of your Data Collector.

Health Inspector provides only Data Collector-level details. For pipeline-level details, monitor the pipeline or review the Data Collector log.

The Health Inspector provides the following categories of information:
  • Data Collector configuration - Displays the settings for certain Data Collector configuration properties, such as the maximum number of pipeline errors allowed in production.
  • Java Virtual Machine (JVM) process - Displays the settings for certain JVM configuration properties, such as the maximum amount of memory allotted to the JVM. Also generates related usage statistics, such as the percentage of the JVM memory currently used by Data Collector.
  • Machine - Displays important details about available resources on the Data Collector machine, such as the available space in the runtime directory.
  • Networking - Verifies that the internet is accessible by pinging the StreamSets website.

Viewing the Health Inspector

Data Collector generates Health Inspector details each time you open the Health Inspector page.

  1. To view the Data Collector Health Inspector, click the Help icon, and then click Health Inspector.
  2. To view all available information, click the Expand All link.

    Green indicates that values are within expected range. Red indicates that values fall beyond the expected range.

    Some details, such as JVM Child Processes, provide additional information. To view that information, click Show Output.
  3. To refresh a category of information, click the Rerun link for the category.
  4. To refresh all Health Inspector details, navigate away from the page, and then return.

REST Response

You can view REST response JSON data for different aspects of the Data Collector, such as pipeline configuration information or monitoring details.

You can use the REST response information to provide Data Collector details to a REST-based monitoring system. Or you might use the information in conjunction with the Data Collector REST API.

You can access the following REST response data:
  • Pipeline Configuration - Provides information about the pipeline and each stage in the pipeline.
  • Pipeline Rules - Provides information about metric and data rules and alerts.
  • Definitions - Provides information about all available Data Collector stages.

 Optional. The revision of the pipeline. Use to reset the origin for an older version of the pipeline.

By default, the Data Collector resets the origin for the most recent version.
--stack Optional. Returns additional information when the Data Collector cannot reset the origin.

Use to debug the problem or pass to StreamSets for help.
For example, the following command resets the origin of the pipeline with an ID of MyPipelinejf45e1f1-dfc1-402c-8587-918bc6e831db when the Data Collector is not registered with Control Hub:
bin/streamsets cli -U http://localhost:18630  manager reset-origin -n MyPipelinejf45e1f1-dfc1-402c-8587-918bc6e831db
The following command resets the origin of the same pipeline when the Data Collector is registered with Control Hub:
bin/streamsets cli -U http://localhost:18630  -a dpm -u user1@mycompany -p MyPassword \
--dpmURL https://cloud.streamsets.com manager reset-origin -n MyPipelinejf45e1f1-dfc1-402c-8587-918bc6e831db
get-committed-offsets
Returns the last-saved offset for a pipeline with an origin that saves offsets. Some origins, such as the HTTP Server, have no need to save offsets.
Pipeline offsets are managed by Data Collector. There's no need to get or replace the last-saved offset unless implementing pipeline failover using an external storage system.
When implementing pipeline failover, use this subcommand to store the last-saved offset to a file. When necessary, you can use the update-committed-offsets command to update the pipeline offset with the contents of the file.
The get-committed-offsets subcommand uses the following syntax:
manager get-committed-offsets \
(-n <pipelineID> | --name <pipelineID>) \
[(-r <pipelineRev> | --revision <pipelineRev>)] \
[--stack]
Get Offset Option Description
-n <pipelineID>

or

--name <pipelineID>

 Required. ID of the pipeline.

Data Collector generates the ID when the pipeline is created. Data Collector uses the alphanumeric characters entered for the pipeline title as a prefix for the generated pipeline ID.
-r <pipelineRev>

or

-- revision <pipelineRev>

 Optional. The revision of the pipeline. Use to reset the origin for an older version of the pipeline.

By default, the Data Collector uses the most recent version.
--stack Optional. Returns additional information when the Data Collector cannot retrieve the last-saved offset.

Use to debug the problem or pass to StreamSets for help.
For example, the following command returns the last-saved offset for a pipeline with an ID of MyPipelinejf45e1f1-dfc1-402c-8587-918bc6e236lc when the Data Collector is not registered with Control Hub:
bin/streamsets cli -U http://localhost:18630 manager get-committed-offsets \
 -n MyPipelinejf45e1f1-dfc1-402c-8587-918bc6e236lc
The following command returns the last-saved offset of the same pipeline when the Data Collector is registered with Control Hub:
bin/streamsets cli -U http://localhost:18630 -a dpm -u user1@mycompany -p MyPassword \
--dpmURL https://cloud.streamsets.com manager get-committed-offsets -n MyPipelinejf45e1f1-dfc1-402c-8587-918bc6e236lc
update-committed-offsets
Updates the last-saved offset for a pipeline with an origin that saves offsets. Some origins, such as the HTTP Server, have no need to save offsets.
Pipeline offsets are managed by Data Collector. There's no need to update the last-saved offset unless performing pipeline failover from a file that contains the last-saved offset stored by using get-committed-offsets.
Change the last-saved offset with great caution and only when the pipeline is not running.
The updated-committed-offsets subcommand uses the following syntax:
manager update-committed-offsets \
(-f <fileName> | --file <fileName>) \
(-n <pipelineID> | --name <pipelineID>) \
[(-r <pipelineRev> | --revision <pipelineRev>)] \
[--stack]
Update Offset Option Description
-f <fileName>

or

--file <fileName>

 Required. Relative or absolute path to the file that contains the last-saved offset.

The file should contain only the last-saved offset retrieved by using the get-committed-offset subcommand.
-n <pipelineID>

or

--name <pipelineID>

 Required. ID of the pipeline.

Data Collector generates the ID when the pipeline is created. Data Collector uses the alphanumeric characters entered for the pipeline title as a prefix for the generated pipeline ID.
-r <pipelineRev>

or

-- revision <pipelineRev>

 Optional. The revision of the pipeline. Use to update the last-saved offset for an older version of the pipeline.

By default, the Data Collector uses the most recent version.
--stack Optional. Returns additional information when the Data Collector cannot update the last-saved offset.

Use to debug the problem or pass to StreamSets for help.
For example, the following command updates the last-saved offset for a pipeline using the offset in the specified file when the Data Collector is not registered with Control Hub:
bin/streamsets cli -U http://localhost:18630 manager get-committed-offsets \
-f /sdc/offsetfiles/mypipeline/offset.txt -n MyPipelinejf45e1f1-dfc1-402c-8587-918bc6e236lc
The following command updates the last-saved offset for the same pipeline using the offset in the specified file when the Data Collector is registered with Control Hub:
bin/streamsets cli -U http://localhost:18630 -a dpm -u user1@mycompany -p MyPassword \
--dpmURL https://cloud.streamsets.com manager get-committed-offsets -f /sdc/offsetfiles/mypipeline/offset.txt \
-n MyPipelinejf45e1f1-dfc1-402c-8587-918bc6e236lc

Store Command

The store command provides subcommands to view a list of all pipelines and to import a pipeline.

You can use the following subcommands with the store command:
list
Lists all available pipelines. The list subcommand uses the following syntax:
store list
Returns the following information for each pipeline:
 {
  "name" : "<pipeline ID>",
  "pipelineId" : "<pipeline ID>",
  "title" : "<pipeline title>",
  "description" : "< >",
  "created" : <created time>,
  "lastModified" : <last modified time>,
  "creator" : "admin",
  "lastModifier" : "admin",
  "lastRev" : "0",
  "uuid" : "<internal ID used for optimistic locking>",
  "valid" : true,
  "metadata" : {
    "labels" : [ ],
    "dpm.pipeline.id" : "<Control Hub pipeline ID>:<organization name>",
    "dpm.pipeline.version" : "<published pipeline version>"
  }
},
For example, the following command lists all pipelines associated with the Data Collector when it is not registered with Control Hub: 
bin/streamsets cli -U http://localhost:18630 store list
The following command lists all pipelines associated with the Data Collector when it is registered with Control Hub: 
bin/streamsets cli -U http://localhost:18630 -a dpm -u user1@mycompany -p MyPassword \
--dpmURL https://cloud.streamsets.com store list
import
Imports a pipeline. Use to import a pipeline JSON file, typically exported from a Data Collector. Returns a message when the import is successful.
The import subcommand uses the following syntax:
store import \
(-n <pipelineTitle> | --name <pipelineTitle>) \
[--stack] \
[(-f <fileName> | --file <fileName>)]
Import Option Description
-n <pipelineTitle>

or

--name <pipelineTitle>

 Required. Title for the imported pipeline.

If the title includes spaces, surround the title in quotation marks.
--stack Optional. Returns additional information when the Data Collector cannot import the pipeline.

Use to debug the problem or pass to StreamSets for help.
-f <fileName>

or

--file <fileName>

 Optional. The location and name of the file to import.

Enter a path relative to the Data Collector installation directory.
For example, the following command creates a pipeline with the title "Files to HDFS" based on the files2hdfs.json file when the Data Collector is not registered with Control Hub: 
bin/streamsets cli -U http://localhost:18630 store import -n "Files to HDFS" -f ../../exported_pipelines/files2hdfs.json
The following command creates a pipeline with the title "Files to HDFS" based on the files2hdfs.json file when the Data Collector is registered with Control Hub: 
bin/streamsets cli -U http://localhost:18630 -a dpm -u user1@mycompany -p MyPassword \
--dpmURL https://cloud.streamsets.com store import -n "Files to HDFS" -f ../../exported_pipelines/files2hdfs.json
