Configuring Data Collector

You can customize Data Collector by editing the Data Collector configuration file, sdc.properties. Use a text editor to edit the Data Collector configuration file, $SDC_CONF/sdc.properties. To enable the changes, restart Data Collector. You can customize Data Collector by configuring the deployment. In Control Hub, edit the deployment. In the Configure Engine section, click Advanced Configuration. Then, click Data Collector Configuration.

Important: Instead of entering sensitive data such as passwords in clear text in the configuration fileconfiguration properties, you can protect the sensitive dataprotect the sensitive data by storing the data in an external location and then using functions to retrieve the data.
Data Collector includes the following general configuration properties:
General Property Description

You can enter multiple file names separated by commas. The files are loaded into the Data Collector configuration in the listed order. If the same configuration property is defined in multiple files, the value defined in the last loaded file takes precedence.

By default, the dpm.properties, vault.properties, and credential-stores.properties files are included in the Data Collector configuration.

By default, credential store, Java. log4j, and security policy properties are included in the Data Collector advanced configuration properties.

The Data Collector configuration fileconfiguration properties includes record sampling properties that indicate the size of the sample set chosen from a total population of records. Data Collector uses the sampling properties when you run a pipeline that writes to a destination system using the SDC Record data format and then run another pipeline that reads from that same system using the SDC Record data format. Data Collector uses record sampling to calculate the time that a record stays in the intermediate destination.

By default, Data Collector uses 1 out of 10,000 records for sampling. If you modify the sampling size, simplify the fraction for better performance. For example, configure the sampling size as 1/40 records instead of 250/10000 records. The following properties specify the sampling size:

Record Sampling Property Description
sdc.record.sampling.sample.size Size of the sample set.

Default is 1.

sdc.record.sampling.population.size Size of the total number of records.

Default is 10,000.

The Data Collector configuration fileconfiguration properties includes properties that define how Data Collector caches pipeline states. Data Collector can cache the state of pipelines for faster retrieval of those states in the Home page. If Data Collector does not cache pipeline states, it must retrieve pipeline states from the pipeline data files stored in the $SDC_DATA directory. You can configure the following properties that specify how Data Collector caches pipeline states:

Pipeline State Cache Property Description
store.pipeline.state.cache.maximum.size Maximum number of pipeline states that Data Collector caches. When the maximum number is reached, Data Collector evicts the oldest states from the cache.

Default is 100.

  • Status of all local and published pipelines that are running on this Data Collector.
  • Performance information for this Data Collector - including CPU load and memory usage.

Default is 60,000.

dpm.remote.deployment.id For provisioned Data Collectors, the ID of the deployment that provisioned the Data Collector.

For manually administered Data Collectors, the value is blank.

Do not change this value.

http.meta.redirect.to.sso Enables the redirect of Data Collector user logins to Control Hub using the HTML meta refresh method. Set to true only if the registered Data Collector is installed as on application on Microsoft Azure HDInsight.

Default is false, which means that Data Collector uses HTTP redirect headers to redirect logins. Use the default for all other Data Collector installation types.

dpm.alias.name.enabled

Enables using an abbreviated Control Hub user ID when Hadoop impersonation mode or shell impersonation mode are used.

By default, when using Hadoop impersonation mode or shell impersonation mode, a Data Collector registered with Control Hub uses the full Control Hub user ID as the user name, as follows:
<ID>@<organization ID>

Enable this property to use only the ID, ignoring "@<organization ID>". For example, using myname instead of myname@org as the user name.

To use a partial Control Hub user ID, uncomment the property and set it to true.

When using Hadoop impersonation mode, the Hadoop system, Data Collector, and the pipeline stages must be properly configured. For more information, see Hadoop Impersonation Mode.

When using shell impersonation mode, Data Collector and the operating system to run the shell script must be properly configured. For more information, see Data Collector Shell Impersonation Mode.
