Hari Sekhon updated AMBARI-24244:
---------------------------------
    Description: 
Ambari's in-built Grafana graph for "HBase GC Times" graph in the HBase - 
RegionServers dashboard is very wrong and doesn't reflect the times I've 
grepped across HBase RegionServer logs for util.JvmPauseMonitor.

I've inherited a very heavily loaded HBase + OpenTSDB cluster where there are 
RegionServer losses occurring due to GCs around 30 seconds(!) causing ZK + 
HMaster to declare them dead. The Grafana graphs show peaks around 70ms due to 
avg downsampling. Editing the graph and changing Aggregator from 'avg' to 
'none' and Transform from 'rate' to 'diff' seems to brings the graph closer to 
what the actual logs and behaviour are showing. But this might need more 
fiddling and investigation.

Right now the GC Times graphs which is incredibly important is worse than 
useless, it's misleading as it shows there are no GC issues when there are 
actually very large very severe GC issues on this cluster.

This is a vanilla Ambari deployed Grafana with Ambari Metrics.
