Thanks Jaimin!This sounds great and worth the wait for 2.1 and not hack through
Ambari-web.

Enhanced dashboard is the ongoing effort and is being actively worked upon on
trunk. This feature will be available in the upcoming Ambari release 2.1.0.
(Bring tracked at https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AMBARI-9792)
After this epic is completed, minimal effort needs to be done to expose the AMS
stored metric data via Ambari API and create your service's dashboard view in
Ambari web.
Documentation for the feature will be done shortly.
For reference you can look at the example patch for Accumulo service
(https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AMBARI-9910) which is using this epic
work and trying to get a new service dashboard.
-Thanks
Jaimin

create a dashboard view for yourself and save it / share it, etc.
Documentation for widgets.josn is still missing on wiki, should be there soon.

Subject: Re: Adding configuration parameters and monitoring metrics for custom
service Thanks again - that's exactly what I was looking for!And I think for
the metrics display on the UI, I will need to browse through the Ambari web,
right?

Did you look through the API docs?

Subject: Re: Adding configuration parameters and monitoring metrics for custom
service Thank you for the link, Sid !I had a look at that, but it does not have
any details or pointers to samples on how to dump your own metrics to the
Ambari Metrics subsystem.For example, my sample service is TSDB - where I have
several TSDB daemons running on an Ambari cluster and I want to dump their
health metrics to Ambari so that it can be displayed on the UI. I know how to
extract the TSDB metrics from TSDB - but don't know how where and how to route
that to the Ambari metrics collector (or montior?).
And once those TSDB metrics are in Ambari, how do I show them in simple graphs
in Ambari?

Subject: Adding configuration parameters and monitoring metrics for custom
service The Ambari doc page
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=38571133 is
very useful and I was able to add a test service.I am at the next evolution
step on some pointers for adding configuration parameters and monitoring
metrics.And ofcourse, the step after that would be how to expose the metrics in
Ambari UI and the REST API.
I did come across https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AMBARI-5707 and was not
sure if I need to "understand" that in order to write and inject my own metrics.
Any pointers?
Thanks,Jayesh
