Configure inputs for standalone Elastic Agentsedit
The inputs section of the elastic-agent.yml file specifies how Elastic Agent
locates and processes input data.
By default Elastic Agent collects system metrics, such as cpu, memory, network, and filesystem metrics, and sends them to the default output. For example:
inputs:
- type: system/metrics
data_stream.namespace: default
use_output: default
streams:
- metricset: cpu
data_stream.dataset: system.cpu
- metricset: memory
data_stream.dataset: system.memory
- metricset: network
data_stream.dataset: system.network
- metricset: filesystem
data_stream.dataset: system.filesystem
If use_output is not specified, the default output is used.
