Masatake Iwasaki commented on HADOOP-12561:
-------------------------------------------

I don't meant to duplicate existing resources. I would like to add information 
I felt hard to find while working on HADOOP-12511, such as how metrics name is 
defined, what the tag is, possible values, allowed data types and characters, 
how entries in hadoop-metrics2.properties works... I would like overview of 
metrics classes too. It would works as where-to-see for existing javadocs.

> Add documentation about metrics system

> Though there is [reference of metric 
> items|https://hadoop.apache.org/docs/r2.7.1/hadoop-project-dist/hadoop-common/Metrics.html],
>  we have no documentation about metrics system and configuration. Adding 
> concise documentation about metrics system would help users, admins and 
> developers.
