Hi there. I'm finishing an elasticsearch to collect metrics from ES (using nodestats) and send to newrelic. Bigdesk is awesome, but we needed to have historical data, SPM is also fantastic, but would mean another cost on monitoring. So for those who use newrelic, you can find the plugin here: [https://github.com/viniciusccarvalho/elasticsearch-newrelic](https://github.com/viniciusccarvalho/elasticsearch-newrelic) I'm still improving, I'd love to hear from the community. It's in a working stage, we have it deployed in our cluster in production sending data to newrelic. In the next few days I want to improve documentation and add some new features as well. Hope to hear back from you guys. Regards -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.

Hi Simon, just opened that. Thanks for pointing out. Amazing how you guys embrace community, I had no idea the whole website was driven by github 😃 Cheers On Monday, March 25, 2013 2:39:35 PM UTC-4, simonw wrote: > if you haven't done so, would you mind opening a pull request adding this > to the website? > > simon > > On Monday, March 25, 2013 5:55:26 PM UTC+1, Vinicius Carvalho wrote: > > > Hi there.

\*Hi \*Vinicius, \* \* \*Great work on new relic integration. It was quite easy to install and get it working. One of the issue that i am facing is with metric. I am using Elastic Search's Java TransportClient to query index. \* \*As per data from transport client the query takes between 10 ms to 50 ms but on checking average time in mills graph, hovering over the graph line shows that the request took seconds. \* _Attached is the screen shot. Are there any settings that i need to do in order to get the metrics correct? I had downloaded zip from gitbub on 5/3/2013 built it using gradle._ \* \* _Thanks_ On Monday, March 25, 2013 9:55:26 AM UTC-7, Vinicius Carvalho wrote: > Hi there.

Hello, I'm very excited about this plugin for new relic, thanks alot for the effort! I installed it (and saw that it loads in the elasticsearch logs). The endpoint \_newrelic is working fine: { configuration: { agents: { http: true pool: true transport: true fs: true indices: true network: true } refreshInterval: 10 } } However, in my new relic account I do not see those metrics as available. When I create a custom dashboard I only have four options: CPU GC Memory MemoryPool There is no autocpmlete for indices, for example. What can cause this? Is there something else I need to define after installing the plugin with: bin/plugin -url file://${jar\_location} -install newrelic and restarting the ES service? ---

I had exactly the same problem! The root cause was that plugin's install instructions don't assume that Elastic Search is ran as a service. Plugin's install instructions work only when ES is started in client mode with "bin/elasticsearch". When Elastic Search is started as a service (eg. with /etc/init.d/elasticsearch), configuration in "bin/elasticsearch.in.sh" WILL NOT be read. I added the "-javaagent" option to file "bin/service/elasticsearch.conf" as the last "additional parameter" as follows: wrapper.java.additional.10=-javaagent:%ES\_HOME%/newrelic/newrelic.jar Another confusion was that ES analytics are only available as New Relic dashboard widgets, hence the default landing page for the ES' statistics is empty (I first thought my service wasn't being monitored at all). When creating the dashboard, you must _manually_ write the ES specific keyword (eg. "indices/") in the "metrics" field. The "metrics" list, which appears when clicking the input field, does _not_ include any ES specific categories before you have written one manually. According to the plugin's README the available keywords for categories are: indices, pool, network, transport, http and filesystem. I struggled with this problem, and this thread was the closest thing I found. I hope you'll get easier time by applying these findings! 🙂 Petrus Repo On Monday, May 20, 2013 10:55:08 AM UTC+3, Eran wrote: > Hello, > > I'm very excited about this plugin for new relic, thanks alot for the > effort! > I installed it (and saw that it loads in the elasticsearch logs). > > The endpoint \_newrelic is working fine: > { > configuration: { > agents: { > http: true > pool: true > transport: true > fs: true > indices: true > network: true > } > refreshInterval: 10 > } > } > > However, in my new relic account I do not see those metrics as available. > When I create a custom dashboard I only have four options: > CPU > GC > Memory > MemoryPool > > There is no autocpmlete for indices, for example. > > What can cause this?
