Access Logs and Metrics

edit

To access logs and metrics for your Elastic Cloud Enterprise installation:

  1. Log into the Cloud UI.
  2. Go to Clusters and select an Elasticsearch cluster.

    For the cluster, the following logs and metrics are available:

    Elasticsearch logs
    Detailed logs related to cluster state
    Elasticsearch metrics
    Detailed metrics for CPU and memory usage, running processes, networking and file system performance, and more
    Proxy logs
    Search and indexing requests that proxies have sent to the Elasticsearch cluster

    If a Kibana instance exists for the cluster, the following Kibana logs and metrics are also available from the Kibana tab:

    Kibana logs
    Detailed logs related to instance state
    Kibana metrics
    Detailed metrics for CPU and memory usage, running processes, networking and file system performance, and more
    Proxy logs
    Requests that proxies have sent to the Kibana instance
  3. Click one of the links and log in with the elastic user. If you do not know the password, you can reset it first

    The password you specify must be for the elastic user on the logging-and-metrics cluster, where the logging and metrics indices are collected. If you need to reset the password for the user, make sure you reset for the logging-and-metrics cluster.

    After you click one of the links, Kibana opens and shows you a view of the monitoring metrics for the logs or metrics that you selected.
