Metrics

event

edit

This is the event dataset of the Kubernetes package. It collects Kubernetes events related metrics.

If Leader Election is activated (default behaviour) only the elastic agent which holds the leadership lock will retrieve events related metrics. This is relevant in multi-node kubernetes cluster and prevents duplicate data.

Example

An example event for event looks as following:

{
    "@timestamp": "2020-06-25T12:30:27.575Z",
    "metricset": {
        "name": "event"

Exported fields

Field	Description	Type	Metric Type
@timestamp	Date/time when the event originated. This is the date/time extracted from the event, typically representing when the event was generated by the source. If the event source has no original timestamp, this value is typically populated by the first time the event was received by the pipeline. Required field for all events.	date
agent.id	Unique identifier of this agent (if one exists). Example: For Beats this would be beat.id.	keyword
cloud.account.id	The cloud account or organization id used to identify different entities in a multi-tenant environment. Examples: AWS account id, Google Cloud ORG Id, or other unique identifier.	keyword
cloud.availability_zone	Availability zone in which this host, resource, or service is located.	keyword
cloud.image.id	Image ID for the cloud instance.	keyword
cloud.instance.id	Instance ID of the host machine.	keyword
cloud.instance.name	Instance name of the host machine.	keyword
cloud.machine.type	Machine type of the host machine.	keyword
cloud.project.id	The cloud project identifier. Examples: Google Cloud Project id, Azure Project id.	keyword
cloud.provider	Name of the cloud provider. Example values are aws, azure, gcp, or digitalocean.	keyword
cloud.region	Region in which this host, resource, or service is located.	keyword
container.id	Unique container id.	keyword
container.image.name	Name of the image the container was built on.	keyword
container.labels	Image labels.	object
container.name	Container name.	keyword
data_stream.dataset	The field can contain anything that makes sense to signify the source of the data. Examples include `nginx.access`, `prometheus`, `endpoint` etc. For data streams that otherwise fit, but that do not have dataset set we use the value "generic" for the dataset value. `event.dataset` should have the same value as `data_stream.dataset`. Beyond the Elasticsearch data stream naming criteria noted above, the `dataset` value has additional restrictions: * Must not contain `-` * No longer than 100 characters	constant_keyword
data_stream.namespace	A user defined namespace. Namespaces are useful to allow grouping of data. Many users already organize their indices this way, and the data stream naming scheme now provides this best practice as a default. Many users will populate this field with `default`. If no value is used, it falls back to `default`. Beyond the Elasticsearch index naming criteria noted above, `namespace` value has the additional restrictions: * Must not contain `-` * No longer than 100 characters	constant_keyword
data_stream.type	An overarching type for the data stream. Currently allowed values are "logs" and "metrics". We expect to also add "traces" and "synthetics" in the near future.	constant_keyword
ecs.version	ECS version this event conforms to. `ecs.version` is a required field and must exist in all events. When querying across multiple indices — which may conform to slightly different ECS versions — this field lets integrations adjust to the schema version of the events.	keyword
host.architecture	Operating system architecture.	keyword
host.containerized	If the host is a container.	boolean
host.domain	Name of the domain of which the host is a member. For example, on Windows this could be the host’s Active Directory domain or NetBIOS domain name. For Linux this could be the domain of the host’s LDAP provider.	keyword
host.hostname	Hostname of the host. It normally contains what the `hostname` command returns on the host machine.	keyword
host.id	Unique host id. As hostname is not always unique, use values that are meaningful in your environment. Example: The current usage of `beat.name`.	keyword
host.ip	Host ip addresses.	ip
host.mac	Host MAC addresses. The notation format from RFC 7042 is suggested: Each octet (that is, 8-bit byte) is represented by two [uppercase] hexadecimal digits giving the value of the octet as an unsigned integer. Successive octets are separated by a hyphen.	keyword
host.name	Name of the host. It can contain what hostname returns on Unix systems, the fully qualified domain name (FQDN), or a name specified by the user. The recommended value is the lowercase FQDN of the host.	keyword
host.os.build	OS build information.	keyword
host.os.codename	OS codename, if any.	keyword
host.os.family	OS family (such as redhat, debian, freebsd, windows).	keyword
host.os.kernel	Operating system kernel version as a raw string.	keyword
host.os.name	Operating system name, without the version.	keyword
host.os.name.text	Multi-field of `host.os.name`.	match_only_text
host.os.platform	Operating system platform (such centos, ubuntu, windows).	keyword
host.os.version	Operating system version as a raw string.	keyword
host.type	Type of host. For Cloud providers this can be the machine type like `t2.medium`. If vm, this could be the container, for example, or other information meaningful in your environment.	keyword
kubernetes.annotations.*	Kubernetes annotations map	object
kubernetes.container.image	Kubernetes container image	keyword
kubernetes.container.name	Kubernetes container name	keyword
kubernetes.deployment.name	Kubernetes deployment name	keyword
kubernetes.event.count	Count field records the number of times the particular event has occurred	long	counter
kubernetes.event.involved_object.api_version	API version of the object	keyword
kubernetes.event.involved_object.kind	API kind of the object	keyword
kubernetes.event.involved_object.name	name of the object	keyword
kubernetes.event.involved_object.resource_version	resource version of the object	keyword
kubernetes.event.involved_object.uid	uid version of the object	keyword
kubernetes.event.message	Message recorded for the given event	text
kubernetes.event.metadata.generate_name	Generate name of the event	keyword
kubernetes.event.metadata.name	Name of the event	keyword
kubernetes.event.metadata.namespace	Namespace in which event was generated	keyword
kubernetes.event.metadata.resource_version	Version of the event resource	keyword
kubernetes.event.metadata.self_link	URL representing the event	keyword
kubernetes.event.metadata.timestamp.created	Timestamp of creation of the given event	date
kubernetes.event.metadata.uid	Unique identifier to the event object	keyword
kubernetes.event.reason	Reason recorded for the given event	keyword
kubernetes.event.source.component	Component from which the event is generated	keyword
kubernetes.event.source.host	Node name on which the event is generated	keyword
kubernetes.event.timestamp.first_occurrence	Timestamp of first occurrence of event	date
kubernetes.event.timestamp.last_occurrence	Timestamp of last occurrence of event	date
kubernetes.event.type	Type of the given event	keyword
kubernetes.labels.*	Kubernetes labels map	object
