Philip Zeyliger commented on IMPALA-7799:
-----------------------------------------

I've used a handful of systems that dump these to logs. In the absence of 
fancier stuff, I suspect a thread which dumps the metrics-json to the log file 
every minute would be basically ok.

>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMPALA-7799
>             Project: IMPALA
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: Backend
>    Affects Versions: Impala 3.0, Impala 2.12.0, Impala 3.1.0
>            Reporter: Michael Ho
>            Priority: Critical
>
> Currently, each Impala demon exposes a set of metrics exposed via the debug 
> webpage metrics page. While this may be very helpful for development, there 
> are many incidents in which one may want to record these metrics to do 
> postmortem analysis for various issues.
> We should consider taking periodic snapshots of these Impalad metrics and 
> archive them for a certain retention period to allow for postmortem analysis. 
> We need to be mindful of the space usage concern (e.g. using compressed json 
> ?)
> To enable easier analysis, one may need to build a tool (or use some existing 
> off-the-shell libraries) to show the collected snapshots as time series and 
> calculate various statistics (e.g. mean, median, min, max etc).
