Elasticsearch-Kibana plugin

Overview

Elasticsearch and Kibana provide a full-text search engine with a flexible web interface for exploring and visualizing data.

Requirements

Requirement Version/Comment
Mirantis OpenStack compatility 6.1 or higher

Recommendations

It is highly recommended to use dedicated disk(s) for data storage. Otherwise Elasticsearch will store its data on the root filesystem.

Limitations

None so far.

Installation Guide

Elasticsearch-Kibana plugin installation

To install the Elasticsearch-Kibana plugin, follow these steps:

  1. Download the plugin from the Fuel Plugins Catalog.

  2. Copy the plugin file to the Fuel Master node. Follow the Quick start guide if you don't have a running Fuel Master node yet.

    scp elasticsearch_kibana-6.1-6.1.0-0.noarch.rpm root@<Fuel Master node IP address>:

  3. Install the plugin using the fuel command line:

    fuel plugins --install elasticsearch_kibana-6.1-6.1.0-0.noarch.rpm

  4. Verify that the plugin is installed correctly:

    fuel plugins --list

Please refer to the Fuel Plugins wiki if you want to build the plugin by yourself. Version 2.0.0 (or higher) of the Fuel Plugin Builder is required.

User Guide

Elasticsearch-Kibana plugin configuration

  1. Create a new environment with the Fuel UI wizard.
  2. Add a node with the "Operating System" role.
  3. Before applying changes or once changes applied, edit the name of the node by clicking on "Untitled (xx:yy)" and modify it for "elasticsearch".
  4. Click on the Settings tab of the Fuel web UI.
  5. Scroll down the page, select the "Elasticsearch-Kibana Server plugin" checkbox and fill-in the required fields.

Testing

Once installed, you can check that ElasticSearch is working using curl:

curl http://$HOST:9200/

Where HOST is the IP address or the name of the node that runs the server.

The expected output is something like this:

{
  "status" : 200,
  "name" : "node-23-es-01",
  "cluster_name" : "elasticsearch",
  "version" : {
    "number" : "1.4.4",
    "build_hash" : "c88f77ffc81301dfa9dfd81ca2232f09588bd512",
    "build_timestamp" : "2015-02-19T13:05:36Z",
    "build_snapshot" : false,
    "lucene_version" : "4.10.3"
  },
  "tagline" : "You Know, for Search"
}

Known issues

None.
