System fsstat metricset
editSystem fsstat metricset
editThe System fsstat
metricset provides overall file system statistics.
This metricset is available on:
- FreeBSD
- Linux
- macOS
- OpenBSD
- Windows
Configuration
editfilesystem.ignore_types
- A list of filesystem types to ignore. Metrics will
not be collected from filesystems matching these types. This setting also
affects the filesystem
metricset. If this option is not set, metricbeat ignores
all types for virtual devices in systems where this information is available (e.g.
all types marked as nodev
in /proc/filesystems
in Linux systems).
For a description of each field in the metricset, see the exported fields section.
