Bryan Beaudreault updated HBASE-26745:
--------------------------------------
Description:
The check in JSONBean
[here|https://github.com/apache/hbase/blob/master/hbase-http/src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/hbase/util/JSONBean.java#L266]
causes the balancer cost metrics to be excluded from the {{/jmx}} endpoint. I
think we should just remove the check for ":". I don't think including metrics
with a colon in them poses any problem, since the strings are quoted. We
removed this check in our cdh5 fork almost a year ago and have not seen any
issues.
Alternatively we can fix the MetricsStochasticBalancerSource metrics to emit
metrics that adhere to these filters, but I think that would be a backwards
incompatible change since this is only a json rendering issue and people might
be consuming JMX directly.
