Elasticsearch

Elasticsearch

Elasticsearch is a search engine based on the Lucene library. It provides a distributed, multitenant-capable full-text search engine with an HTTP web interface and schema-free JSON documents. Elasticsearch is developed in Java.

Available solutions




This template is for Zabbix version: 6.4
Also available for: 6.2 6.0 5.4 5.0

Source: https://git.zabbix.com/projects/ZBX/repos/zabbix/browse/templates/app/elasticsearch_http?at=release/6.4

Elasticsearch Cluster by HTTP

Overview

The template to monitor Elasticsearch by Zabbix that work without any external scripts. It works with both standalone and cluster instances. The metrics are collected in one pass remotely using an HTTP agent. They are getting values from REST API _cluster/health, _cluster/stats, _nodes/stats requests.

Requirements

Zabbix version: 6.4 and higher.

Tested versions

This template has been tested on:

  • Elasticsearch 6.5, 7.6

Configuration

Zabbix should be configured according to the instructions in the Templates out of the box section.

Setup

You can set {$ELASTICSEARCH.USERNAME} and {$ELASTICSEARCH.PASSWORD} macros in the template for using on the host level. If you use an atypical location ES API, don't forget to change the macros {$ELASTICSEARCH.SCHEME},{$ELASTICSEARCH.PORT}.
