Doug Meil commented on HBASE-4089:
----------------------------------

Ahhh.. ok, I get it.  This... "8351478435190657655_0" ... makes sense now.  

Since the first part is a StoreFile, I can use directory paths to figure out 
which CF, which region, and which table this StoreFile belongs to because the 
directory structure is /table/region/cf/storefile.  I'll basically construct a 
Map where the key is the hfileName (aka StoreFile) and the value is an object 
that contains table/cf (since that is the level that the report needs to roll 
up to).

I'm currently not aware of any utility that has this kind of lookup, but I 
think I now understand how to build it.

> Summarized block-cache report for a RegionServer would be helpful.  For 
> example ...
> table1
>   cf1   100 blocks, totalBytes=yyyyy, averageTimeInCache=XXXX hours
>   cf2   200 blocks, totalBytes=zzzzz, averageTimeInCache=XXXX hours
> table2
>   cf1  75 blocks, totalBytes=yyyyy, averageTimeInCache=XXXX hours
>   cf2 150 blocks, totalBytes=zzzzz, averageTimeInCache=XXXX hours
> ... Etc.
> The current metrics list blockCacheSize and blockCacheFree, but there is no 
> way to know what's in there.  Any single block isn't really important, but 
> the patterns of what CF/Table they came from, how big are they, and how long 
> (on average) they've been in the cache, are important.
> No such interface exists in HRegionInterface.  But I think it would be 
> helpful from an operational perspective.
> Updated (7-29):  Removing suggestion for UI.  I would be happy just to get 
> this report on a configured interval dumped to a log file.
