                 Key: CHUKWA-557
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CHUKWA-557
             Project: Chukwa
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: data collection
         Environment: Java 6, MacOSX 6
            Reporter: Eric Yang
            Assignee: Eric Yang


Metrics emited by Chukwa Agent through MetricsContext is structured as:

contextName: chukwaHttpSender
recordName: chukwaHttpSender

The same context is repeated twice in the naming hierarchy.

Ideally, the structure should be:

contextName: agent
recordName: httpSender

Therefore, the metrics can be collected in chukwa table, column family: 
agent_httpSender.  In sequence file, it will be chukwa data type directory, and 
hashmap looks like:

{noformat}
{ "contextName":"agent","recordName":"httpSender",...}
{noformat}
