Elasticsearch Metricbeat

Video Lecture

Elasticsearch Metricbeat Elasticsearch Metricbeat

Description

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

Download Metricbeat for your OS from https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/beats/metricbeat/current/metricbeat-installation-configuration.html#installation

My OS is a Debian based Ubuntu 20.04

curl -L -O https://artifacts.elastic.co/downloads/beats/metricbeat/metricbeat-7.16.1-amd64.deb
sudo dpkg -i metricbeat-7.16.1-amd64.deb

View the available modules and status

metricbeat modules list

(Optional) Enable the linux module

metricbeat modules enable linux

Navigate to the Metricbeat folder.

cd /etc/metricbeat
ls -lh

Edit the Metricbeat settings.

sudo nano /etc/metricbeat/metricbeat.yml

Update the address of your Elasticsearch server.

output.elasticsearch:
  hosts: ["<IP Address of your Elasticsearch Server>:9200"]

Restart and check status.

sudo service metricbeat start
sudo service metricbeat status

Firewall

Don't forget about any firewalls rules you don't have or need to add.

Verify that your Metricbeat process can send to your Elasticsearch server by making curl requests from the server running Metricbeat.

curl "http://<IP Address of your Elasticsearch Server>:9200"

and to get the name of the new index created by this new Metricbeat service,

curl "http://<IP Address of your Elasticsearch Server>:9200/_cat/indices"
