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.
