## Overview

This collector monitors the performance and health of the Elasticsearch cluster.


It uses [Cluster APIs](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/cluster.html) to collect metrics.

Used endpoints:

| Endpoint               | Description          | API                                                                                                         |

This collector is supported on all platforms.

This collector supports collecting metrics from multiple instances of this integration, including remote instances.


### Default Behavior

#### Auto-Detection

By default, it detects instances running on localhost by attempting to connect to port 9200:

- http://127.0.0.1:9200
- https://127.0.0.1:9200


#### Limits

By default, this collector monitors only the node it is connected to. To monitor all cluster nodes, set the `cluster_mode` configuration option to `yes`.


#### Performance Impact

The default configuration for this integration is not expected to impose a significant performance impact on the system.


## Metrics

Metrics grouped by *scope*.

The scope defines the instance that the metric belongs to. An instance is uniquely identified by a set of labels.

## Troubleshooting

### Debug Mode

To troubleshoot issues with the `elasticsearch` collector, run the `go.d.plugin` with the debug option enabled. The output
should give you clues as to why the collector isn't working.

- Navigate to the `plugins.d` directory, usually at `/usr/libexec/netdata/plugins.d/`. If that's not the case on
  your system, open `netdata.conf` and look for the `plugins` setting under `[directories]`.

  ```bash
  cd /usr/libexec/netdata/plugins.d/
  ```

- Switch to the `netdata` user.

  ```bash
  sudo -u netdata -s
  ```

- Run the `go.d.plugin` to debug the collector:

  ```bash
  ./go.d.plugin -d -m elasticsearch
  ```
