Host

To configure this check for an Agent running on a host:

Follow the instructions below to configure this check for an Agent running on a host. For containerized environments, see the Containerized section.

Metric collection

1. Edit the hive.d/conf.yaml file, in the conf.d/ folder at the root of your Agent’s configuration directory to start collecting your hive performance data. See the sample hive.d/conf.yaml for all available configuration options.

   This check has a limit of 350 metrics per instance. The number of returned metrics is indicated in the status page. You can specify the metrics you are interested in by editing the configuration below. To learn how to customize the metrics to collect, see the JMX Checks documentation for more detailed instructions. If you need to monitor more metrics, contact Datadog support.

2. Restart the Agent.

Log collection

Available for Agent versions >6.0

1. Collecting logs is disabled by default in the Datadog Agent, you need to enable it in datadog.yaml:

   logs_enabled: true
   

2. Add this configuration block to your hive.d/conf.yaml file to start collecting your Hive logs:

     logs:
       - type: file
         path: /tmp/<USER>/hive.log
         source: hive
         service: '<SERVICE_NAME>'
         log_processing_rules:
           - type: multi_line
             name: new_log_start_with_date
             pattern: \d{4}\-\d{2}\-\d{2}
   

   Change the path and service parameter values and configure them for your environment. See the sample hive.d/conf.yaml for all available configuration options.

3. Restart the Agent.
