Overview
Zookeeper monitoring is a Gateway configuration file that enables monitoring of the Zookeeper Replicas through a set of samplers with customised JMX plug-in settings.
Zookeeperis a distributed process that allows deployment configurations and can be used as a container manager. It has a built-in load balancing capability that can manage multiple services in different machines simultaneously.
Track the following key areas when using Zookeeper monitoring:
| Key Area | Description |
|---|---|
| Replica configuration | Refers to the configuration settings the users can set. |
| Replica statistics | Replica metrics that provide information about the overall health of the Zookeeper Ensemble. |
Intended audience
This technical reference is intended for users who will be using Active Console to monitor data from Zookeeper. If you are setting up the integration for the first time, see Zookeeper Monitoring User Guide.
