Yiqun Lin commented on HDFS-13674:
----------------------------------

[~csun], thanks for updating the patch.
{noformat}
....if `rpc.metrics.quantile.enable` is set to true. *num* is specified by 
`rpc.metrics.percentiles.intervals`. |
{noformat}
The config {{rpc.metrics.quantile.enable}} and 
{{rpc.metrics.percentiles.intervals}} is making sense for Aggregate RPC metrics 
in COMMON. For NameNode metrics you updated in patch, following description is 
correct.
{noformat}
Percentile measurement is off by default, by watching no intervals. The 
intervals are specified by `dfs.metrics.percentiles.intervals`. |

    String sessionId = conf.get(DFSConfigKeys.DFS_METRICS_SESSION_ID_KEY);
    String processName = r.toString();
    MetricsSystem ms = DefaultMetricsSystem.instance();
    JvmMetrics jm = JvmMetrics.create(processName, sessionId, ms);
    
    // Percentile measurement is off by default, by watching no intervals
    int[] intervals = 
        conf.getInts(DFSConfigKeys.DFS_METRICS_PERCENTILES_INTERVALS_KEY);
    return ms.register(new NameNodeMetrics(processName, sessionId,
        intervals, jm));

> There are a few confusing places in the [Hadoop Metrics 
> page|https://hadoop.apache.org/docs/stable/hadoop-project-dist/hadoop-common/Metrics.html].
>  For instance, there are duplicated entries such as {{FsImageLoadTime}}; some 
> quantile metrics do not have corresponding entries, description on some 
> quantile metrics are not very specific on what is the {{num}} variable in the 
> metrics name, etc.
> This JIRA targets at improving this.
