Monitoring Query Activity

The Queries chart displays information about query concurrency and average resource usage for CPU/memory, network activity, and disk I/O percent based on maximum rated bandwidth.

Hover over a data point for more information about percent usage for each of the resource types.

If you click a data point, MC opens a details page for that point in time, summarizing the number of user queries and system queries. This page can help you identify long-running queries, along with the query type. You can sort table columns and export the report to a file.

Monitoring Key Events

On the main Queries page, MC reports when a key event occurred, such as a Workload Analyzer or rebalance operation, by posting a Workload Analyzer (Workload Analyzer) and/or RBL (rebalance) label on the resource section of the chart.

Filtering Chart Results

The default query concurrency is over the last hour. The chart automatically refreshes every five minutes, unless you clear the Auto Refresh option in the toolbar. You can filter results for 1 hour, 1 day, or up to 1 week, along with corresponding average resource usage. You can also click different resources in the legend to show or hide those resources.

To return to the main Queries page, use the slider bar or click the 1h button.

Viewing More Detail

To zoom in for detail, click-drag the mouse around a section or use the sliding selector bar at the bottom of the chart. After the detailed area displays, hover your cursor over a data point to view the resources anchored to that point in time.

For more detail about user or system queries, click a data point on one of the peaks. A Detail page opens to provide information about the queries in tabular format, including the query type, session ID, node name, query type, date, time, and the actual query that ran.

The bottom of the page indicates the number of queries it is showing on the current page, with Previous and Next buttons to navigate through the pages. You can sort the columns and export contents of the table to a file.

To return to the main Queries page, click <database name> Activity in the navigation bar.
