Docs Self-Managed Reference Monitoring Metrics Public Metrics This is documentation for Self-Managed v24.2. To view the latest available version of the docs, see v24.3. Public Metrics This section provides reference descriptions about the public metrics exported from Redpanda’s /public_metrics endpoint. In a live system, Redpanda metrics are exported only for features that are in use. For example, Redpanda does not export metrics for consumer groups if 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]" Use /public_metrics for your primary dashboards for system health. Use /metrics for detailed analysis and debugging. 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_non_homogenous_fips_mode Number of brokers that have a non-homogenous FIPS mode value. Type: gauge 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. redpanda_cluster_latest_cluster_metadata_manifest_age The amount of time in seconds since the last time Redpanda uploaded metadata files to Tiered Storage for your cluster. A value of 0 indicates metadata has not yet been uploaded. When performing a whole cluster restore operation, the metadata for the new cluster will not have any changes made to a source cluster that is newer than this age. Type: gauge Usage: On a healthy system, this should not exceed the value set for cloud_storage_cluster_metadata_upload_interval_ms. You may consider setting an alert if this remains 0 for longer than 1.5 * cloud_storage_cluster_metadata_upload_interval_ms as that may indicate a configuration issue.

Querying this will provide a check on all resources with at least one certificate installed. The value of this gauge is either 1 to indicate presence of a valid certificate or 0 to indicate the absence of a valid certificate.
