Total IP packets provided by local IP user-level protocols (including ICMP) to IP in requests for transmission. This metric does not include the packets counted in ip_forwdatagrams.
ip_outtransmits
DGAUGE, count
Number of successfully sent IP packets
ip_reasmfails
DGAUGE, count
Number of failures detected by the IP reassembly algorithm due to reasons, such as timeouts, errors, etc. This is not necessarily a count of dropped IP fragments, since certain algorithms, like the one in RFC 815, may lose count of fragments while reassembling them as they are received.

Flood stage disk fill threshold
opensearch_high_watermark_bytes
DGAUGE, bytes

Number of shards currently initializing
opensearch_is_alive
DGAUGE, 0/1
Host health indicator.
It can be either 1 if a DB host is healthy or 0 if not.
opensearch_low_watermark_bytes
DGAUGE, bytes
Lower threshold for used disk space
opensearch_low_watermark_percentage
DGAUGE, percentage
Disk fill lower threshold
opensearch_primary_shards_count
DGAUGE, count
Number of primary shards per cluster
opensearch_relocating_shards
DGAUGE, count
Number of shards being relocated
opensearch_shards_count
DGAUGE, count
Total number of shards per cluster
opensearch_status_green
DGAUGE, 0/1
Green (healthy) cluster status indicator
opensearch_status_red
DGAUGE, 0/1
Red (unhealthy) cluster status indicator
opensearch_status_yellow
DGAUGE, 0/1
Yellow (partially healthy) cluster status indicator
opensearch_status
DGAUGE, 0/1/2
Cluster health and technical condition:
0 (red): Cluster is unhealthy or partially functional. At least one of the primary shards is not available. If the cluster is responding to queries, search results in the responses will be incomplete.
1 (yellow): Cluster is functional. One or more shard replicas are inaccessible. Search results in the cluster responses are complete, but if more shards become unavailable, the cluster performance will be disrupted.
2 (green): Cluster is healthy. All cluster shards are available.
opensearch_unassigned_shards
DGAUGE, count
Number of inactive shards with no host assigned
opensearch_unassigned_user_shards_count
DGAUGE, count
Number of unassigned custom shards
opensearch_user_shards_without_primary_count
DGAUGE, count
Number of custom shards without primary backups
opensearch_user_shards_without_replica_count
DGAUGE, count
Number of custom shards without replicas
