Getting metricbeat process-related info only for some specified processes

Elastic Stack Beats

Hi,

I want to configure my metricbeat.yml file in a way so that i can get process-related info(for example, system.process.pid,system.process.memory.size etc) where system.process.name = chrome.exe OR outlook.exe OR java.exe.
And NOT for all the processes running.

Kindly suggest.

You can use the processes configuration option to accomplish this.

metricbeat.modules:
- module: system
  metricsets: [process]
  processes:
  - '^chrome.exe$'
  - '^outlook.exe$'
  - '^java.exe$'
