Installing and using Marvel
Similar to Sematext SPM, Marvel is a commercial product (freely available for development) built by ElasticSearch to monitor and manage an ElasticSearch cluster.
Getting ready
You need a working ElasticSearch cluster.
How to do it...
To install the Marvel plugin, we will perform the following steps:
- The plugin is composed of a native component (JAR) and a site component (HTML, CSS, images, and JavaScript). It can be installed using the following command:
bin/plugin -i elasticsearch/marvel/latest
- After a node restart, if everything goes well, it should appear in the sites list.
