You can enable {monitoring} in {es}, Logstash, {kib}, and Beats. By default, the
|
|
monitoring agents on {es} index data within the same cluster.
|
|
|
|
TIP: If you have a dedicated monitoring cluster, the information is accessible
|
|
even if the {es} cluster you're monitoring is not. You can send data from
|
|
multiple clusters to the same monitoring cluster and view them all through the
|
|
same instance of {kib}. For more information, see
|
|
|
|
To view and analyze the health and performance of {es}, Logstash, {kib}, and
|
|
Beats:
|
|
|
|
. {ref}/configuring-monitoring.html[Configure monitoring in {es}]. If you want
|
|
to use a separate monitoring cluster, see
|
|
{xpack-ref}/monitoring-production.html[Monitoring in a Production Environment].
|
|
|
|
. <<monitoring-xpack-kibana,Configure monitoring in {kib}>>.
|
|
|
|
. {logstash-ref}/configuring-logstash.html[Configure monitoring in Logstash].
|
|
|
|
. Configure monitoring in {auditbeat-ref}/monitoring.html[Auditbeat],
|
|
{filebeat-ref}/monitoring.html[Filebeat],
|
|
{heartbeat-ref}/monitoring.html[Heartbeat],

|
|
. Open {kib} in your web browser and log in. If you are running {kib}
|
|
locally, go to `http://localhost:5601/`. To access {kib} and view the
|
|
monitoring dashboards, you must log in as a user who has the `kibana_user`
|
|
and `monitoring_user` roles.
|
|
|
|
. In the side navigation, click *Monitoring*. The first time you open {kib}
|
|
monitoring, data collection is
|
|
disabled. You will be prompted to turn on data collection.
|
|
+
|
|
If you have permission to turn on data collection and there is data in the cluster,
|
|
{kib} displays the monitoring dashboards. You'll see cluster alerts
|
|
that require your attention and a summary of the available monitoring metrics
|
|
for {es}, Logstash, {kib}, and Beats. To view additional information, click the
|
|
Overview, Nodes, Indices, or Instances links.

|
If {kib} can't activate monitoring, here are some things to do:
|
|
+
|
|
* If you don't have permission to activate monitoring,
|
|
contact your system administrator.
|
|
+
|
|
* If {kib} can't find monitoring data, set the time filter to
|
|
“Last 1 hour”. When monitoring data appears in your cluster, the page
|
|
automatically refreshes with the monitoring summary.
|
|
+
|
|
* Check your `xpack.monitoring.elasticsearch.url` setting.
|
|
