healthcheck

healthcheck

Serve health (/live) and readiness (/ready) checks for an Elasticsearch node.

Healthy if:

• HEAD request to / succeeds.

Ready if:

• The node has joined a cluster.
• Only once at startup: the cluster state is green, or the cluster state is yellow but no shards are being initialized or relocated.

Checks are also served as Prometheus gauges at /metrics.
