Hot Threads API
editHot Threads API
editThe hot threads API gets the current hot threads for Logstash. A hot thread is a Java thread that has high CPU usage and executes for a longer than normal period of time.
curl -XGET 'localhost:9600/_node/hot_threads?pretty'
The output is a JSON document that contains a breakdown of the top hot threads for Logstash.
Example response:
{
"hot_threads" : {
"time" : "2017-06-06T18:25:28-07:00",
"busiest_threads" : 3,
"threads" : [ {
"name" : "Ruby-0-Thread-7",
"percent_of_cpu_time" : 0.0,
"state" : "timed_waiting",
"path" : "/path/to/logstash-6.6.2/vendor/bundle/jruby/1.9/gems/puma-2.16.0-java/lib/puma/thread_pool.rb:187",
"traces" : [ "java.lang.Object.wait(Native Method)", "org.jruby.RubyThread.sleep(RubyThread.java:1002)", "org.jruby.RubyKernel.sleep(RubyKernel.java:803)" ]
}, {
"name" : "[test2]>worker3",
"percent_of_cpu_time" : 0.85,
"state" : "waiting",
"traces" : [ "sun.misc.Unsafe.park(Native Method)", "java.util.concurrent.locks.LockSupport.park(LockSupport.java:175)", "java.util.concurrent.locks.AbstractQueuedSynchronizer.parkAndCheckInterrupt(AbstractQueuedSynchronizer.java:836)" ]
}, {
"name" : "[test2]>worker2",
"percent_of_cpu_time" : 0.85,
"state" : "runnable",
"traces" : [ "org.jruby.RubyClass.allocate(RubyClass.java:225)", "org.jruby.RubyClass.newInstance(RubyClass.java:856)", "org.jruby.RubyClass$INVOKER$i$newInstance.call(RubyClass$INVOKER$i$newInstance.gen)" ]
} ]
}
}
The parameters allowed are:
|
|
The number of hot threads to return. The default is 10. |
|
|
If true, returns plain text instead of JSON format. The default is false. |
|
|
If true, does not return idle threads. The default is true. |
See Common Options for a list of options that can be applied to all Logstash monitoring APIs.
You can use the ?human parameter to return the document in a human-readable format.
curl -XGET 'localhost:9600/_node/hot_threads?human=true'
Example of a human-readable response:
