Hello everyone,
I am looking at stats of my index created for an application. Index has
been created with 5 shards and 0 replicas.
I am not sure what is the difference between following?
What does \*"count": 1260748 \*represent? and what does _"index\_total":
498044_ represent?
I see total records count _498044_ with search API. But I am not getting
what does "count" indicate under "docs" element in below stats response?
Can anyone please suggest where I can find more details on explanation of
stats elements?
{
"\_shards":
{
"total": 10,
"successful": 5,
"failed": 0
},
"\_all":
{
"primaries":
{
"docs":
{
\* "count": 1260748,\*
"deleted": 0
},
"store":
{
"size\_in\_bytes": 119431308,
"throttle\_time\_in\_millis": 110867
},
"indexing":
{
\* "index\_total": 498044,\*
"index\_time\_in\_millis": 132353,
"index\_current": 7,
"delete\_total": 0,
"delete\_time\_in\_millis": 0,
"delete\_current": 0,
"noop\_update\_total": 0,
"is\_throttled": false,
"throttle\_time\_in\_millis": 0
},
....
....
Appreciate your inputs!
Regards,
Sagar Shah

If it is not in the documentation or asked in mailing list, then you
will have to read into the code.
