Pulse Explorer Data Insights

Hi team,

We are developing a customized dashboard for the MEC using the Explorer feature of Pulse (Kibana dashboard). While we've made some customizations,

we need more information on the fields shown. Is there documentation from Cubewise that explains each field? Or can some one Please share any relevant documents or tutorials to assist us in customizing the dashboard effectively.

Thank you!

@SHAKEER , the following link provides a brief overview of the indices used in the opensearch and the pulse data it holds.

https://code.cubewise.com/blog/understanding-pulse-elasticsearch-data/

You can use opensearch dev tools, to query the field details related to each indices.

DevTools is disabled by default, to enable it go to conf/dashboards/opensearch.dashboards.yml config file and set console.enabled: true Note: Require restart of dashboard service. This should display the DevTools

the following query should provide details of the indices field. GET pulse-server-state-2024-12/_mapping?pretty

Hope this helps,if you require additional support, we can plan to setup a meeting.

thanks,

Johnson Abraham

Hi @SHAKEER ,

In the attached Excel file, you will find the list of fields by documentType and indices: Pulse_6_Opensearch_Data.xlsx

If you are looking for a specific information, please let us know and we can help you to find this information.

Cheers,

Vincent

Hi @jabraham and @vviau thankyou so much for sharing the information.

I was on a search for the following details

1.No. of server reboots(if we can use some Index, DocumentType and flied to cover those) i).Server availability ii).Time server was not available

2.CPU exceeded warning threshold i)No. of reported cases memory

3)is it possible to link the customize dashboard (like when we drill down on a specific process or it should navigate me to another customized dashboard)

4)is it possible to increase the screen time of the kibana dashboard as it ends the session in 10 to 15 mins

if you can help me to find those details by setting up a meeting Or any document hold those information it would help to me to do a better job on customizing the dashboard.

regards,

shakeer

@SHAKEER , You can increase the opensearch session by increasing the pulse session in pulse.cfg

[WebServer] SessionTimeout = 1200

does it required a restart of pulse application server services if we increase the SessionTimeout

Yes, any changes to the pulse.cfg file require restart of Pulse Application Server service

ok thanks @jabraham

Hi @jabraham,

I hope this message finds you well. I have nearly completed customizing the dashboard, which now meets all current requirements and looks great.

I have a couple of questions:

1. Is it possible to link customized dashboards, such that drilling down on a specific process navigates to another customized dashboard?

2. With the upcoming update of the Pulse version (by feb) for the Pulse application server and monitor servers next month, will my customized dashboard migrate automatically, or should I take any specific actions like creating a backup?

I would appreciate your guidance on these matters.

Thank you.

Best regards, shakeer

@SHAKEER,

I am figuring out if its possible to add link in customized dashboards to other dashboards.

Regarding the newly created dashboards, they are stored in opensearch indices, so it should be available after an upgrade of pulse.

To be on the safer side, please backup your dashboards.

You can export your customized dashboards and import them using Dashboard Management/Saved Objects thanks, Johnson

Hi @jabraham

Can I please get your response for the above questions

@SHAKEER, the feature to add drilldown url to dashboard panel is not available in opensearch.

https://forum.opensearch.org/t/dashboard-drilldown-unavailable-in-opensearch/8620

There is a thread in the opensearch-dashboards community regarding such a feature https://github.com/opensearch-project/OpenSearch-Dashboards/issues/1308#issuecomment-1059430323

It's not available in the opensearch release 2.16.0 that is distributed with Pulse 6.5.2.

This feature is not available in the latest version of opensearch 2.18.0 as well.

@SHAKEER , is it ok to close this issue.

thanks,

Johnson
