Can I get a hardware specification with metricbeat?

[david_k]

Hi all.

Can I get a hardware specification with metricbeat?
Or Can I calculate h/w specification with metricbeat system field?

Thanks

For example
CPU - dual core 2.4 GHz
RAM - 16 GB
Hard Drive - 256 GB

Some of the information can be retrieved from the HW using metricbeat.

For example, number of CPU cores can be retrieved using the CPU metricset of system module in cpu.cores:

RAM size can be retrieved using the memory metricset: https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/beats/metricbeat/current/metricbeat-metricset-system-filesystem.html

Hard drive size can be retrieved by filesystems using the filesystem module: https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/beats/metricbeat/current/metricbeat-metricset-system-filesystem.html This number is stored in filesystem.total. It might require aggregation of total sizes of filesystems depending on how your hard drive is partitioned.

System module of metricbeat retrieves the data of the host running it. It is worth looking at its metricsets as it provide system info.
