"[Metricbeat Docker] Overview ECS" dashboard values are different from values displayed by "docker stats" command, even if I filter the exact host and container.  
Is there any way to show docker stats values in kibana?

Versions:  
Metricbeat = 7.3.2  
Docker = 18.06.1-ce

Thanks!!!

Hi @Gravador_Monitor,

apologies for the late reply.

Currently, not all metrics that are available through `docker stats` are picked up by `metricbeat`'s `docker` module. To see what a specific metricset includes, see the documentation here:

[https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/beats/metricbeat/7.4/metricbeat-module-docker.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/beats/metricbeat/7.4/metricbeat-module-docker.html)

If a certain metric you're looking for is being reported by `metricbeat`, but not included in the dashboard, you can create your own visualizations as described here: [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/createvis.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/createvis.html)

cheers,  
Sonja

This PR went into the recently released 7.4 to add some metrics to the `docker` module:

Thanks Sonja!

One more question: Its possible use cAdvisor to send metrics to ElasticSearch service in the Cloud?

Hi @Gravador_Monitor,

yes, as cAdvisor exports Prometheus metrics they can be fetched using the Metricbeat Prometheus collector: [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/beats/metricbeat/current/metricbeat-metricset-prometheus-collector.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/beats/metricbeat/current/metricbeat-metricset-prometheus-collector.html)

hope that helps!

& cheers,  
Sonja
