Hi, is there a curl command I can run to pull the CPU load from each server in my ES cluster?

Do you have monitoring enabled in your cluster? Which version are you using?

I'm running version 7.8.1 and I do see "Stack Monitoring" link in the Kibana UI. When I click that link I see another UI with names of the clusters. After clicking the name of the cluster I'm able to see some parameters such as "JVM Heap", "Disk", "Indices", etc for ElasticSearch, Kibana, and Logstash. However, I don't see any CPU Load States like 5,10,15 min load averages for the nodes in the cluster.

Are these data points available to pull out of the cluster?

I believe there CPU usage is monitored but maybe not those specific metrics.
