Docs Self-Managed Reference Monitoring Metrics Internal Metrics Reference This is documentation for Self-Managed v23.2, which is no longer supported. To view the latest available version of the docs, see v24.2. Internal Metrics Reference This section provides reference descriptions about the internal metrics exported from Redpanda’s /metrics endpoint. Use /public_metrics for your primary dashboards for system health. Use /metrics for detailed analysis and debugging. In a live system, Redpanda metrics are exported only for features that are in use. For example, a metric for consumer groups is not exported when no groups are registered. To see the available internal metrics in your system, query the /metrics endpoint: curl http://<node-addr>:9644/metrics | grep "[HELP|TYPE]" Internal metrics Most internal metrics are useful for debugging. The following subset of internal metrics can be useful to monitor system health. vectorized_application_uptime Redpanda uptime in milliseconds. vectorized_cluster_partition_last_stable_offset Last stable offset. If this is the last record received by the cluster, then the cluster is up-to-date and ready for maintenance. vectorized_cluster_partition_schema_id_validation_records_failed Number of records that failed schema ID validation. vectorized_io_queue_delay Total delay time in the queue. Can indicate latency caused by disk operations in seconds. vectorized_io_queue_queue_length Number of requests in the queue. Can indicate latency caused by disk operations. vectorized_kafka_rpc_active_connections Number of currently active Kafka RPC connections, or clients. vectorized_kafka_rpc_connects Number of accepted Kafka RPC connections. Compare to the value at a previous time to derive the rate of accepted connections. vectorized_kafka_rpc_received_bytes Number of bytes received from Kafka RPC clients in valid requests. Compare to the value at a previous time to derive the throughput in Kafka layer in bytes/sec received. vectorized_kafka_rpc_requests_completed Number of successful Kafka RPC requests. Compare to the value at a previous time to derive the messages per second per shard. vectorized_kafka_rpc_requests_pending Number of Kafka RPC requests being processed by a server. vectorized_kafka_rpc_sent_bytes Number of bytes sent to Kafka RPC clients. vectorized_kafka_rpc_service_errors Number of Kafka RPC service errors. vectorized_raft_leadership_changes Number of leadership changes. High value can indicate nodes failing and causing leadership changes. vectorized_reactor_utilization Redpanda process utilization. Shows the true utilization of the CPU by a Redpanda process. vectorized_storage_log_compacted_segment Number of compacted segments. vectorized_storage_log_log_segments_created Number of created log segments. vectorized_storage_log_partition_size Current size of partition in bytes. vectorized_storage_log_read_bytes Total number of bytes read. vectorized_storage_log_written_bytes Total number of bytes written.
