Disk Metric in Observability [Elastic Stack 7.11.1]

[RdrgPorto (Rodrigo Porto)]

Hi, everyone

I have been working with the new version of Elastic Stack (7.11.1) for several days. I would like to know if Elastic team will add Disk metricset in Observability in future versions.

Here you are my metricbeat config:

metricbeat.modules:
- module: system
  metricsets:
    - cpu             # CPU usage
    - load            # CPU load averages
    - memory          # Memory usage
    - network         # Network IO
    - process         # Per process metrics
    - process_summary # Process summary
    - uptime          # System Uptime
    - socket_summary  # Socket summary
    - core           # Per CPU core usage
    - diskio         # Disk IO
    - filesystem     # File system usage for each mountpoint
    - fsstat         # File system summary metrics
    - socket         # Sockets and connection info (linux only)
    - service        # systemd service information

  enabled: true
  period: 10s
  processes: ['.*']

  # Configure the metric types that are included by these metricsets.
  cpu.metrics:  ["percentages","normalized_percentages"]  # The other available option is ticks.
  core.metrics: ["percentages"]  # The other available option is ticks.

output.elasticsearch:
 hosts: ["http://localhost:9200"]

Nowadays, it shows CPU, Load, Memory and Network.

From my point of view, it would be great to show some metric about Disk, like read/write or used space.

Thanks in advance,

Rodrigo

Hi Rodrigo,

I think it's a good idea to open an enhancement request (issue) in the Beats repository.
