When the
diskiometricset is enabled, you can use thediskio.include_devicesoption to define a list of device names to pre-filter the devices that are reported. Filters only exact matches. If not set or given[]empty array, all disk devices are returnedThe following example config returns metrics for devices matching include_devices:
metricbeat.modules: - module: system metricsets: ["diskio"] diskio.include_devices: ["sda", "sda1"]
For a description of each field in the metricset, see the exported fields section.
