             Summary: Metrics sinks may emit too frequently if multiple sink periods are configured
                 Key: HADOOP-15008
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-15008
             Project: Hadoop Common
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: metrics
            Reporter: Erik Krogen
            Assignee: Erik Krogen
            Priority: Minor


If there are multiple metrics sink periods configured, depending on what those periods are, some sinks may emit too frequently. For example with the following:
{code:title=hadoop-metrics2.properties}
namenode.sink.file10.class=org.apache.hadoop.metrics2.sink.FileSink
namenode.sink.file5.class=org.apache.hadoop.metrics2.sink.FileSink
namenode.sink.file10.filename=namenode-metrics_per10.out
namenode.sink.file5.filename=namenode-metrics_per5.out
namenode.sink.file10.period=10
namenode.sink.file5.period=5
{code}
I get the following:
{code}
± for f in namenode-metrics_per*.out; do echo "$f" && grep "metricssystem.MetricsSystem" $f | awk '{last=curr; curr=$1} END { print curr-last }'; done
namenode-metrics_per10.out
5000
namenode-metrics_per5.out
5000
{code}
i.e., for both metrics files, each record is 5000 ms apart, even though one of the sinks has been configured to emit at 10s intervals
