Monitoring Metrics for Logstash Clusters in Cloud Eye

You can use Cloud Eye to monitor cluster metrics of CSS in real time and quickly handle exceptions.

Function

This section describes CSS metrics that can be monitored by Cloud Eye as well as their namespaces and dimensions. You can query metrics and alerts generated by CSS on the Cloud Eye console or using an API

  • If the configuration center of a Logstash cluster does not have any records of operations on the pipeline list, the monitoring records of this Logstash cluster are empty.
  • When the Events data of a pipeline changes dynamically, the monitoring data changes accordingly. When a pipeline task is being started or stopped, or the Events data is stable, the monitoring data remains unchanged.

Cluster Monitoring Metrics

Accumulated value: The value is accumulated from the time when a node is started. After the node is restarted, the value is reset to zero and accumulated again.
