Couchbase provides multiple ways to monitor a cluster through the admin web console, the CLI, and the REST API.
You can verify the underlying server processes using the cbcollect_info
utility. This tool is executed per node and collects information about the overall health of the cluster. The output of the command will be in a .zip
file. It contains numerous log files. These log files will provide comprehensive information about the cluster:
cbcollect_info collect_info.zip
Server startup, also known as warmup is a process in which the server loads data from the disk to the RAM before it can handle clients' requests. During this process, Couchbase won't be serving any request from the clients. After the warmup
process completes, the data is available for clients to read and write. This can take some time, depending on the size of the data. You can monitor the warmup
process using the following command:
cbstats localhost:11210 warmup
