Applications

From the Applications tab, you can view the details of all the jobs running in your cluster based on the application types. By default, all the Jobs that are running, for all the applications in the last hour, are displayed. The required job details of an application can be listed quickly by:

  • Cluster-ID

  • Job ID, Keyword

  • Date/time range

These filters can vary based on the tab that you are viewing. For instance:

  • You can only filter the All and Running list of jobs by keyword or job ID.

  • You can filter all the views by Application Type.

The total number of applications that meet the filtering criteria is shown on the top of the left panel. You can easily filter the jobs from any of the following tabs and by the corresponding options provided on the left panel:

  • All: All the jobs in all the applications are listed, for a selected time range, regardless of the status.

  • Running: All the applications, which are in running status during the selected time range are listed.

  • Inefficient: All the applications, which had inefficient events during their run are listed.

Note

These settings are not propagated across views, in other words changing any of these values does not alter the settings for the other tabs. Like across the UI, your state is saved when you leave the view.

The Reset button sets all criteria, except date range, to the defaults. Therefore, the only filter applied is the date range.

  • Click any of the listed job to bring up the Application details page for that job.

  • Click column-setting.png in the header row to select the columns to be displayed.

All applications

This tab displays all the jobs running on various application types. By default, this tab shows all the jobs running in all the applications, in the past hour. The jobs are sorted in descending order on Start Time. To sort the results by another column, click the sort arrows (sort-notused.png ) next to the column header. Click the top arrow to sort the column by ascending order and the bottom for descending order. The column the list is currently sorted on has the sort choice highlighted (sort-descending.png ).

Whenever Unravel has an analysis for the jobs that are run for an application, the Insights column displays this (insights.png) icon. For more details, check the Analysis tab in the Application details page for that application.

Parent App

The Parent App column has a link to the parent application of the job or related application. Click the link to bring up the details page of the parent application.

Running applications

This tab lists all the running applications on the cluster.

applications-running-apps.png

Unravel polls the Resource Manager every 90 seconds to get the resources (vCores, Memory MB, and running containers) for all running and pending apps.

Apps that run less than 90 seconds are usually not captured, i.e., unless the application is running at the exact moment the Resource Manager is polled the application data is not captured. Therefore, for any given point in time, the total number of apps running does not match the number of apps in Applications > Applications if you filter at the same time.

See All applications above for details on the filter options. This view does not have a status filter and a date picker for time period, since its shows only the running jobs.

Inefficient Apps

This view lists all the apps which had inefficient events.

The only filter options are Application Type and Application Events. Hover over the Application Event names to see the complete name. Click the job to bring up the job in its APM page. Go to the analysis tab for the complete explanations of the job's inefficiencies.
