.`exporting-metric-data-to-elasticsearch` functionality available in the Metrics RHEL System Role Elasticsearch is a popular, powerful and scalable search engine. With this enhancement, by exporting metric values from the Metrics RHEL System Role to the Elasticsearch, users are able to access metrics via Elasticsearch interfaces, including via graphical interfaces, REST APIs, between others. As a result, users are able to use these Elasticsearch interfaces to help diagnose performance problems and assist in other performance related tasks like capacity planning, benchmarking and so on.

Description Pavel Cahyna 2020-11-05 23:21:11 UTC

Comment 1 Jan Kurik 2020-11-06 06:48:44 UTC
Rejecting this RFE from Base-OS-Tools QE perspective.
Elasticsearch is not a supported package in RHEL and there is no domain knowledge in QE team to test it.

Comment 2 RHEL Program Management 2020-11-06 06:48:52 UTC
Quality Engineering Management has reviewed and declined this request. You may appeal this decision by reopening this request.

Comment 3 Nathan Scott 2020-11-06 07:49:09 UTC
Re-opening after chatting to Jan and clarifying the scope in the Summary - there was some confusion there, this doesn't involve configuring elasticsearch itself, only the export of metrics (values, metadata) into elasticsearch.

I think we're going to have to do something (even 'best effort') here - PM have requested this functionality and its available from base PCP (pcp2elasticsearch).  If the minimum we can afford to do is check the appropriate packages are installed once the role has been used, that'd be OK too I think.
