Elasticsearch stats exporter for Prometheus

Project README

Elasticsearch Exporter

CircleCI Go Report Card

Prometheus exporter for various metrics about Elasticsearch, written in Go.

Installation

For pre-built binaries please take a look at the releases. https://github.com/prometheus-community/elasticsearch_exporter/releases

Docker

docker pull quay.io/prometheuscommunity/elasticsearch-exporter:latest
docker run --rm -p 9114:9114 quay.io/prometheuscommunity/elasticsearch-exporter:latest

Example docker-compose.yml:

elasticsearch_exporter:
    image: quay.io/prometheuscommunity/elasticsearch-exporter:latest
    command:
     - '--es.uri=http://elasticsearch:9200'
    restart: always
    ports:
    - "127.0.0.1:9114:9114"

Kubernetes

You can find a helm chart in the prometheus-community charts repository at https://github.com/prometheus-community/helm-charts/tree/main/charts/prometheus-elasticsearch-exporter

helm repo add prometheus-community https://prometheus-community.github.io/helm-charts
helm install [RELEASE_NAME] prometheus-community/prometheus-elasticsearch-exporter

Configuration

NOTE: The exporter fetches information from an Elasticsearch cluster on every scrape, therefore having a too short scrape interval can impose load on ES master nodes, particularly if you run with --es.all and --es.indices. We suggest you measure how long fetching /_nodes/stats and /_all/_stats takes for your ES cluster to determine whether your scraping interval is too short. As a last resort, you can scrape this exporter using a dedicated job with its own scraping interval.

Below is the command line options summary:

elasticsearch_exporter --help
Argument Introduced in Version Description Default
collector.clustersettings 1.6.0 If true, query stats for cluster settings (As of v1.6.0, this flag has replaced "es.cluster_settings"). false
es.uri 1.0.2 Address (host and port) of the Elasticsearch node we should connect to. This could be a local node (localhost:9200, for instance), or the address of a remote Elasticsearch server. When basic auth is needed, specify as: <proto>://<user>:<password>@<host>:<port>. E.G., http://admin:pass@localhost:9200. Special characters in the user credentials need to be URL-encoded. http://localhost:9200
es.all 1.0.2 If true, query stats for all nodes in the cluster, rather than just the node we connect to. false
es.indices 1.0.2 If true, query stats for all indices in the cluster. false
es.indices_settings 1.0.4rc1 If true, query settings stats for all indices in the cluster. false
es.indices_mappings 1.2.0 If true, query stats for mappings of all indices of the cluster. false
es.aliases 1.0.4rc1 If true, include informational aliases metrics. true
es.shards 1.0.3rc1 If true, query stats for all indices in the cluster, including shard-level stats (implies es.indices=true). false
es.snapshots 1.0.4rc1 If true, query stats for the cluster snapshots. false
es.slm If true, query stats for SLM. false
es.data_stream If true, query state for Data Steams. false
es.timeout 1.0.2 Timeout for trying to get stats from Elasticsearch. (ex: 20s) 5s
es.ca 1.0.2 Path to PEM file that contains trusted Certificate Authorities for the Elasticsearch connection.
es.client-private-key 1.0.2 Path to PEM file that contains the private key for client auth when connecting to Elasticsearch.
es.client-cert 1.0.2 Path to PEM file that contains the corresponding cert for the private key to connect to Elasticsearch.
es.clusterinfo.interval 1.1.0rc1 Cluster info update interval for the cluster label 5m
es.ssl-skip-verify 1.0.4rc1 Skip SSL verification when connecting to Elasticsearch. false
web.listen-address 1.0.2 Address to listen on for web interface and telemetry. :9114
web.telemetry-path 1.0.2 Path under which to expose metrics. /metrics
aws.region 1.5.0 Region for AWS elasticsearch
aws.role-arn 1.6.0 Role ARN of an IAM role to assume.
version 1.0.2 Show version info on stdout and exit.

Commandline parameters start with a single - for versions less than 1.1.0rc1. For versions greater than 1.1.0rc1, commandline parameters are specified with --.

The API key used to connect can be set with the ES_API_KEY environment variable.

Elasticsearch 7.x security privileges

Username and password can be passed either directly in the URI or through the ES_USERNAME and ES_PASSWORD environment variables. Specifying those two environment variables will override authentication passed in the URI (if any).

ES 7.x supports RBACs. The following security privileges are required for the elasticsearch_exporter.

Setting Privilege Required Description
collector.clustersettings cluster monitor
exporter defaults cluster monitor All cluster read-only operations, like cluster health and state, hot threads, node info, node and cluster stats, and pending cluster tasks.
es.indices indices monitor (per index or *) All actions that are required for monitoring (recovery, segments info, index stats and status)
es.indices_settings indices monitor (per index or *)
es.indices_mappings indices view_index_metadata (per index or *)
es.shards not sure if indices or cluster monitor or both
es.snapshots cluster:admin/snapshot/status and cluster:admin/repository/get ES Forum Post
es.slm read_slm
es.data_stream monitor or manage (per index or *)

Alerts & Recording Rules

We provide examples for Prometheus alerts and recording rules as well as an Grafana Dashboard and a Kubernetes Deployment.

The example dashboard needs the node_exporter installed. In order to select the nodes that belong to the Elasticsearch cluster, we rely on a label cluster. Depending on your setup, it can derived from the platform metadata:

For example on GCE

- source_labels: [__meta_gce_metadata_Cluster]
  separator: ;
  regex: (.*)
  target_label: cluster
  replacement: ${1}
  action: replace

Please refer to the Prometheus SD documentation to see which metadata labels can be used to create the cluster label.
