Elasticsearch Advanced Dashboard

Video Lecture

Elasticsearch Advanced Dashboard Elasticsearch Advanced Dashboard Elasticsearch Advanced Dashboard

Description

Now to install an advanced dashboard that uses both the Filebeat and Metricbeat datasources at the same time.

I will set this up on my linux server where the Filebeat process is already running.

Download Metricbeat for your OS from https://www.elastic.co/downloads/beats/metricbeat

My OS is a Debian based Ubuntu 20.04

1
2
curl -L -O https://artifacts.elastic.co/downloads/beats/metricbeat/metricbeat-7.10.0-amd64.deb
sudo dpkg -i metricbeat-7.10.0-amd64.deb

Navigate to the Metricbeat folder. 

1
2
cd /etc/metricbeat
ls -lh

Edit the Metricbeat settings. 

1
sudo nano /etc/metricbeat/metricbeat.yml

View the available modules and status 

1
metricbeat modules list

Now to install the 'OS stats - Linux' dashboard from https://grafana.com/grafana/dashboards/12626

Import a new dashboard using the ID 12626

Choose the correct Filebeat and Metricbeat datasources and then continue.

Not all panels will contain data, so you will need to edit the /etc/metricbeat/modules.d/system.yml file on the host running Metricbeat.

My /etc/metricbeat/modules.d/system.yml has these settings
