Sentry uses Codahale to present the metrics.
Enabling metrics and configuration parameters
You need to enable the sentry web server in order to view the sentry metrics.
Make the below changes in sentry-site.xml to enable sentry web server and restart the sentry service.
Config Property | Value | Default | Required |
|---|---|---|---|
| sentry.service.web.enable | true | false | Yes |
| sentry.service.web.port | 51000 | 51000 | No |
| sentry.service.web.authentication.type | KERBEROS or NONE | NONE | Yes |
To view the metrics go to <Sentry-Role-Host>:51000/metrics?pretty=true.
Additional JMX/Console output:
Apart from viewing the metrics on the web page, you can enable a reporter to show the current metrics.
Config Property | Value | Default | Required |
