Docs Self-Managed Reference Monitoring Metrics Public 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. Public Metrics Reference This section provides reference descriptions about the public metrics exported from Redpanda’s /public_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 public metrics in your system, query the /public_metrics endpoint: curl http://<node-addr>:9644/public_metrics | grep "[HELP|TYPE]" Cluster metrics redpanda_cluster_brokers Number of configured, fully commissioned brokers in a cluster. Type: gauge How to monitor: create an alert for when this gauge dips below a steady-state threshold, as a node(s) has become unresponsive. redpanda_cluster_controller_log_limit_requests_available_rps Limit on the available requests per second (RPS) for a cluster controller log. Type: gauge Labels: redpanda_cmd_group=("move_operations" | "topic_operations" | "configuration_operations" | "node_management_operations" | "acls_and_users_operations") redpanda_cluster_controller_log_limit_requests_dropped Number of requests dropped by a cluster controller log due to exceeding redpanda_cluster_controller_log_limit_requests_available_rps. Type: counter Labels: redpanda_cmd_group=("move_operations" | "topic_operations" | "configuration_operations" | "node_management_operations" | "acls_and_users_operations") Usage: when this counter increases, it indicates that the controller is dropping requests. redpanda_cluster_partition_moving_from_node Number of partition replicas in the cluster that are currently being removed from a node. Type: gauge Usage: when this gauge is non-zero, determine whether there is an expected or unexpected reassignment of partitions that is causing movement of partition replicas. redpanda_cluster_partition_moving_to_node Number of partition replicas in the cluster that are currently being added or moved to a node. Type: gauge Usage: when this gauge is non-zero, determine whether there is an expected or unexpected reassignment of partitions that is causing movement of partition replicas. redpanda_cluster_partition_node_cancelling_movements During a partition movement cancellation operation, the number of partition replicas that were being moved that now need to be cancelled. Type: gauge How to monitor: when this gauge is non-zero, determine whether there is an expected or unexpected reassignment of partitions that is causing movement of partition replicas. redpanda_cluster_partitions Number of partitions managed by a cluster. Includes partitions of the controller topic, but not replicas. Type: gauge redpanda_cluster_topics Number of topics in a cluster. Type: gauge redpanda_cluster_unavailable_partitions Number of unavailable partitions (the partitions that lack quorum among their replica group) in the cluster. Type: gauge Usage: when this gauge is non-zero, it indicates that a partition(s) doesn’t have quorum and thus doesn’t have an active leader. To mitigate, consider increasing the number of brokers and the partition replication factor. Infrastructure metrics redpanda_cpu_busy_seconds_total Total CPU busy time in seconds.

Type: gauge redpanda_storage_disk_free_space_alert Alert for low disk storage: 0-OK, 1-low space, 2-degraded. Type: gauge redpanda_storage_disk_total_bytes Total size in bytes of attached storage. Type: gauge redpanda_uptime_seconds_total Total CPU runtime (uptime) in seconds. Type: gauge Raft metrics redpanda_node_status_rpcs_received Number of node status RPCs received by a node. Type: gauge redpanda_node_status_rpcs_sent Number of node status RPCs sent by a node. Type: gauge redpanda_node_status_rpcs_timed_out Number of timed out node status RPCs from a node.
