Elasticsearch:Perform a diagnostic on an Elasticsearch cluster

Last Updated:Oct 19, 2023

After you enable Intelligent Maintenance, the system automatically performs a diagnostic on your Alibaba Cloud Elasticsearch cluster every morning. After the diagnostic is complete, a diagnostic report is generated. In addition to the daily diagnostic, you can use the Cluster Diagnosis feature to manually diagnose your Elasticsearch cluster. You can use this feature to diagnose a cluster for up to five times a day. Each diagnostic requires about 3 minutes.

Prerequisites

Intelligent Maintenance is enabled. For more information, see Enable Intelligent Maintenance.

Procedure

  1. Log on to the Alibaba Cloud Elasticsearch console.
  2. In the left-side navigation pane, click Elasticsearch Clusters.
  3. Navigate to the desired cluster.
    1. In the top navigation bar, select the resource group to which the cluster belongs and the region where the cluster resides.
    2. On the Elasticsearch Clusters page, find the cluster and click its ID.
  4. In the left-side navigation pane of the cluster details page, click Cluster Diagnosis under Intelligent Maintenance.

  5. On the page that appears, configure Indexes and Diagnosis Items.

    All indexes and diagnostic items are selected by default. You can specify up to 10 indexes for each diagnostic request.

  6. Click Diagnose Now.

    After the diagnostic is complete, the system displays the latest diagnostic report.
