Cluster stats

Introduced 1.0

The cluster stats API operation returns statistics about your cluster.

Path and HTTP methods

GET _cluster/stats
GET _cluster/stats/nodes/<node-filters>
GET _cluster/stats/<metric>/nodes/<node-filters>
GET _cluster/stats/<metric>/<index_metric>/nodes/<node-filters>

Path parameters

All parameters are optional.

Parameter Type Description
<node-filters> List A comma-separated list of node filters that OpenSearch uses to filter results.
metric String A comma-separated list of metric groups, for example, jvm,fs. Default is all metric groups.
index_metric String A comma-separated list of index metric groups, for example, docs,store. Default is all index metrics.

Although the term master was deprecated in favor of cluster_manager subsequent to OpenSearch 2.0, the master field was retained for backward compatibility. If you have a node that has either a master role or a cluster_manager role, the count increases for both fields by 1. For an example node count increase, see the example response.

Metric groups

The following table lists all available metric groups.

Metric Description
indices Statistics about indexes in the cluster.
os Statistics about the host OS, including load and memory.
process Statistics about processes, including open file descriptors and CPU usage.
jvm Statistics about the JVM, including heap usage and threads.
fs Statistics about file system usage.
plugins Statistics about OpenSearch plugins integrated with the nodes.
network_types A list of the transport and HTTP networks connected to the nodes.
discovery_type The method used by the nodes to find other nodes in the cluster.
packaging_types Information about each node’s OpenSearch distribution.
ingest Statistics about ingest pipelines.

Index metric groups

To filter the information returned for the indices metric, you can use specific index_metric values. These values are only supported when using the following query types:

GET _cluster/stats/_all/<index_metric>/_nodes/<node-filters>
GET _cluster/stats/indices/<index_metric>/_nodes/<node-filters>

The following index metrics are supported:

  • shards
  • docs
  • store
  • fielddata
  • query_cache
  • completion
  • segments
  • mappings
  • analysis

For example, the following query requests statistics for docs and search:

GET _cluster/stats/indices/docs,segments/_nodes/_all

Example request

The following example requests returns information about the cluster manager node:

GET _cluster/stats/nodes/_cluster_manager
