Cluster state update time
Dimensions:None
Available on:OpenTelemetryOpenTelemetry (1)

Summary

Measures the time taken to process cluster state updates on the master node. Long update times indicate master node CPU saturation, large cluster state size, or complex update operations. The mapping explosion insight notes that bloated cluster state causes slow updates, delaying shard allocation and index operations cluster-wide.

Cluster State Update Delayswarning

Slow cluster state updates cause delays in shard allocation, index creation, and mapping updates. Large cluster state size or master node resource constraints are common causes.
