ALM-19034 Number of RegionServer WAL Write Timeouts Exceeds the Threshold
Alarm Description
The system checks the number of RegionServer WAL write timeouts in each HBase service every 30 seconds. This alarm is generated when the number of WAL write timeouts on a RegionServer instance exceeds the threshold for 10 consecutive times.
This alarm is cleared when the number of WAL write timeouts on a RegionServer instance is less than or equal to the threshold.
This alarm applies only to MRS 3.3.1 or later.

Impact on the System
The write operation latency increases. Too many WAL write timeouts may severely deteriorate the data write performance.
Possible Causes
- A slow disk fault occurred.
- RegionServer GC is abnormal.
- HBase is overloaded.
- The WAL configuration is improper.
Handling Procedure
- Log in to MRS Manager and choose O&M. In the navigation pane on the left, choose Alarm > Alarms. On the page that is displayed, locate the row containing the alarm whose Alarm ID is 19034, and view the service instance and host name in Location.
Check whether a slow disk fault occurred.
- In the alarm list on MRS Manager, check whether the "Slow Disk Fault" or "Disk Unavailable" is displayed for the instance you checked in 1.
- Rectify the fault by following the handling procedure of "ALM-12033 Slow Disk Fault" or "ALM-12063 Disk Unavailable".
- Wait several minutes and check whether the alarm is cleared.
- If yes, no further action is required.
- If no, go to 5.
Check whether RegionServer GC is abnormal.
- In the alarm list on MRS Manager, check whether "ALM-19007 HBase GC Duration Exceeds the Threshold" is displayed.
- Rectify the fault by following the handling procedure of "ALM-19007 HBase GC Duration Exceeds the Threshold".
- Wait several minutes and check whether the alarm is cleared.
- If yes, no further action is required.
- If no, go to 8.
Check the HBase load.
- In the alarm list on MRS Manager, check whether "ALM-19018 HBase Compaction Queue Size Exceeds the Threshold" is displayed.
- Rectify the fault by following the handling procedure of "ALM-19018 HBase Compaction Queue Size Exceeds the Threshold".
- Wait several minutes and check whether the alarm is cleared.
- If yes, no further action is required.
- If no, go to 11.
Check the WAL configuration.
- On MRS Manager, choose Cluster > Service > HBase, click Configurations > All Configurations, and check whether the values of hbase.wal.hsync and hbase.hfile.hsync are true.
- Set both hbase.wal.hsync and hbase.hfile.hsync to false and click Save. Click Dashboard and click More > Restart Service to restart the HBase service.
- Wait several minutes and check whether the alarm is cleared.
- If yes, no further action is required.
- If no, go to 14.
Collect fault information.
- On MRS Manager, choose O&M. In the navigation pane on the left, choose Log > Download.
- Expand the Service drop-down list, and select HBase for the target cluster.
- Click the edit icon in the upper right corner, and set Start Date and End Date for log collection to 10 minutes ahead of and after the alarm generation time, respectively. Then, click Download.
- Contact O&M personnel and provide the collected logs.
Alarm Clearance
This alarm is automatically cleared after the fault is rectified.
