Elasticsearch module

edit

There are two modules that collect metrics about Elasticsearch:

The Elasticsearch module contains a minimal set of metrics to enable monitoring of Elasticsearch across multiple versions. The default metricsets in this module are node and node_stats.
The Elasticsearch X-Pack module enables you to monitor more Elasticsearch metrics with our monitoring feature. The default metricsets in this module are ccr, cluster_stats, index, index_recovery, index_summary, ml_job, node_stats, and shard.

Compatibility

edit

The Elasticsearch module is tested with Elasticsearch 6.3 and is expected to work with all 6.x versions.

Example configuration

edit

The Elasticsearch module supports the standard configuration options that are described in Specify which modules to run. Here is an example configuration:

metricbeat.modules:
- module: elasticsearch
  metricsets:
    - node
    - node_stats
    #- index
    #- index_recovery
    #- index_summary
    #- shard
    #- ml_job
  period: 10s
  hosts: ["http://localhost:9200"]
  #username: "elastic"
  #password: "changeme"
  #ssl.certificate_authorities: ["/etc/pki/root/ca.pem"]

  # Set to false to fetch all entries
  #index_recovery.active_only: true

  # Set to true to send data collected by module to X-Pack
  # Monitoring instead of metricbeat-* indices.
  #xpack.enabled: false
