You can obtain the basic information of a Logstash cluster from the Basic Information page of the cluster. The information includes the version, status, IP address, and port number of the cluster. This topic describes how to view the basic information of a Logstash cluster. This topic also describes the parameters on the Basic Information page.
Procedure
Log on to the Alibaba Cloud Elasticsearch console.
Navigate to the target cluster.
In the top navigation bar, select the region where the cluster resides.
On the Logstash Clusters page, find the cluster and click its ID.
-
On the Basic Information page, view the basic information and port information of the cluster.
The following table describes some parameters on the Basic Information page.

The ID of the cluster.
Creation Time
The time when the cluster is created.
Name
By default, the cluster name is the same as the cluster ID. Cluster names are configurable. You can search for clusters by name.
Status
The status of the cluster. A Logstash cluster can be in one of the following states: Normal (green), Initializing (yellow), Paused (red), and Expired (gray).
Geography
The region where the cluster resides.
Zone
The zone where the cluster resides.
Version
Valid values: 6.7.0 and 7.4.0.
Billing Method
The billing method of the cluster. Valid values: Subscription and Pay-as-you-go.
Virtual Private Cloud (VPC)
The ID of the virtual private cloud (VPC) to which the cluster belongs.
Virtual Switch ID
The ID of the vSwitch to which the cluster belongs.
Node Specifications
The type and vCPU and memory specifications of the data nodes in the cluster.
Nodes
The number of data nodes in the cluster.
Disk Type
The type of disk used by the data nodes. Supported types: Ultra Disk and Standard SSD.
-
Ultra Disk: provides up to 5 TB of storage. A cost-effective disk type suitable for log analysis scenarios with large data volumes.
-
Standard SSD: provides up to 2 TB of storage. Suitable for online analytics and search scenarios that require high IOPS and fast response times.
Storage Space
The storage space of each data node in the cluster.
Maintenance Window
The maintenance window for the cluster. The default value of this parameter is Disabled.
Connection information
Address
The private IP address of a node in the cluster. You may need to use this address when you configure access to your Logstash cluster over the Internet. For more information, see Configure a NAT gateway for data transmission over the Internet.
ImportantYou can use only machines that reside in the same VPC as your Logstash cluster to access the cluster over this private IP address.
By default, you cannot ping this private IP address. You can run a telnet command to test the connectivity to the address.
Internal Port
The private port used to access the cluster. The port number is fixed at 9600.
ImportantThis port is the service port of Logstash clusters and can be used when you access your Logstash cluster. If you want to specify ports in the input configurations when you configure pipelines, you can use only ports 8000 to 9000. For more information, see Use configuration files to manage pipelines.
