Metricbeat

metricbeat is used to ship Kubernetes and host metrics to multiple outputs.

Prerequisites

• Kubernetes 1.9+

Installing the Chart

To install the chart with the release name my-release:

$ helm install --name my-release stable/metricbeat

Tip

: List all releases using helm list

Uninstalling the Chart

To uninstall/delete the my-release deployment:

$ helm delete my-release

The command removes all the Kubernetes components associated with the chart and deletes the release.

Configuration

The following table lists the configurable parameters of the metricbeat chart and their default values.

Parameter	Description	Default
image.repository	The image repository to pull from	docker.elastic.co/beats/metricbeat
image.tag	The image tag to pull	6.7.0
image.pullPolicy	Image pull policy	IfNotPresent
rbac.create	If true, create & use RBAC resources	true
rbac.pspEnabled	If true, create & use PSP resources	false
serviceAccount.create	If true, create & use ServiceAccount	true
serviceAccount.name	The name of the ServiceAccount to use. If not set and create is true, a name is generated using the fullname template
config	The content of the configuration file consumed by metricbeat. See the metricbeat.reference.yml for full details
plugins	List of beat plugins
extraEnv	Additional environment
extraVolumes, extraVolumeMounts	Additional volumes and mounts, for example to provide other configuration files
resources.requests.cpu	CPU resource requests
resources.limits.cpu	CPU resource limits
resources.requests.memory	Memory resource requests
resources.limits.memory	Memory resource limits
daemonset.enabled	If true, enable daemonset
daemonset.overrideConfig	If overrideConfig is not empty, metricbeat chart's default config won't be used at all.	{}
daemonset.modules.<name>.config	The content of the modules configuration file consumed by metricbeat deployed as daemonset, which is assumed to collect metrics in each nodes. See the metricbeat.reference.yml for full details
daemonset.modules.<name>.enabled	If true, enable configuration
daemonset.overrideModules	If overrideModules is not empty, metricbeat chart's default modules won't be used at all.	{}
daemonset.podAnnotations	Pod annotations for daemonset
daemonset.priorityClassName	Pod priority class name for daemonset (e.g system-node-critical)	""
daemonset.nodeSelector	Pod node selector for daemonset	{}
daemonset.tolerations	Pod taint tolerations for daemonset	[{"key": "node-role.kubernetes.io/master", "operator": "Exists", "effect": "NoSchedule"}]
daemonset.resources.requests.cpu	CPU resource requests for daemonset
daemonset.resources.limits.cpu	CPU resource limits for daemonset
deployment.enabled	If true, enable deployment
deployment.overrideConfig	If overrideConfig is not empty, metricbeat chart's default config won't be used at all.	{}
deployment.modules.<name>.config	The content of the modules configuration file consumed by metricbeat deployed as deployment, which is assumed to collect cluster-level metrics. See the metricbeat.reference.yml for full details
deployment.modules.<name>.enabled	If true, enable configuration
deployment.overrideModules	If overrideModules is not empty, metricbeat chart's default modules won't be used at all.	{}
deployment.podAnnotations	Pod annotations for deployment
deployment.priorityClassName	Pod priority class name for deployment (e.g system-cluster-critical)	""
deployment.nodeSelector	Pod node selector for deployment	{}
deployment.tolerations	Pod taint tolerations for deployment	[]
deployment.resources.requests.cpu	CPU resource requests for daemonset
deployment.resources.limits.cpu	CPU resource limits for daemonset

Specify each parameter using the --set key=value[,key=value] argument to helm install. For example,

$ helm install --name my-release \
    --set rbac.create=true \
    stable/metricbeat

Alternatively, a YAML file that specifies the values for the parameters can be provided while installing the chart. For example,

$ helm install --name my-release -f values.yaml stable/metricbeat

Tip

: You can use the default values.yaml
