Failed ingest operations
Dimensions:None
Available on:OpenTelemetryOpenTelemetry (1)

Summary

Counts failed ingest operations across all pipelines on a node, aggregating failures from document transformation errors, processor exceptions, or resource constraints. This node-level metric provides visibility into overall ingest health. Rising failure counts indicate systemic issues with ingest pipeline configurations or input data quality, potentially contributing to document loss if error handling isn't properly configured.
