A job resource has the following properties:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`analysis_config`::
|
2017-04-19 16:31:07 -04:00
|
|
|
(object) The analysis configuration, which specifies how to analyze the data.

`background_persist_interval`::
|
2017-04-24 13:46:17 -04:00
|
|
|
(time units) Advanced configuration option.
|
|
|
|
The time between each periodic persistence of the model.
|
|
|
|
The default value is a randomized value between 3 to 4 hours, which avoids
|
|
|
|
all jobs persisting at exactly the same time. The smallest allowed value is
|
2017-08-02 11:25:46 -04:00
|
|
|
1 hour.

==== Analysis Configuration Objects
|
2017-04-04 18:26:39 -04:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
An analysis configuration object has the following properties:
|
|
|
|
|
2017-05-08 09:53:04 -04:00
|
|
|
`bucket_span`::
|
2017-04-19 16:31:07 -04:00
|
|
|
(time units) The size of the interval that the analysis is aggregated into,
|
2018-07-24 20:06:46 -04:00
|
|
|
typically between `5m` and `1h`. The default value is `5m`. For more
|
|
|
|
information about time units, see <<time-units,Common options>>.
|
2017-04-04 18:26:39 -04:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`categorization_field_name`::
|
2017-07-27 11:02:46 -04:00
|
|
|
(string) If this property is specified, the values of the specified field will
|
|
|
|
be categorized. The resulting categories must be used in a detector by setting
|
|
|
|
`by_field_name`, `over_field_name`, or `partition_field_name` to the keyword
|
|
|
|
`mlcategory`. For more information, see
|

|
2017-04-04 18:26:39 -04:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`categorization_filters`::
|
2017-04-19 16:31:07 -04:00
|
|
|
(array of strings) If `categorization_field_name` is specified,
|
|
|
|
you can also define optional filters. This property expects an array of
|
|
|
|
regular expressions. The expressions are used to filter out matching sequences
|
2018-01-17 16:11:36 -05:00
|
|
|
from the categorization field values. You can use this functionality to fine
|
|
|
|
tune the categorization by excluding sequences from consideration when
|
|
|
|
categories are defined. For example, you can exclude SQL statements that
|
|
|
|
appear in your log files. For more information, see
|
2017-06-19 21:23:58 -04:00

|
2018-01-15 10:47:19 -05:00
|
|
|
This property cannot be used at the same time as `categorization_analyzer`.
|
2018-01-17 16:11:36 -05:00
|
|
|
If you only want to define simple regular expression filters that are applied
|
|
|
|
prior to tokenization, setting this property is the easiest method.
|
|
|
|
If you also want to customize the tokenizer or post-tokenization filtering,
|
|
|
|
use the `categorization_analyzer` property instead and include the filters as
|
|
|
|
`pattern_replace` character filters. The effect is exactly the same.
|

|
|
|
`categorization_analyzer`::
|
2018-01-17 16:11:36 -05:00
|
|
|
(object or string) If `categorization_field_name` is specified, you can also
|
|
|
|
define the analyzer that is used to interpret the categorization field. This
|
|
|
|
property cannot be used at the same time as `categorization_filters`. See
|
|

|
|
which describe the anomaly detectors that are used in the job.

|
|
|
(array of strings) A comma separated list of influencer field names.
|
2017-04-19 16:31:07 -04:00
|
|
|
Typically these can be the by, over, or partition fields that are used in the
|
|
|
|
detector configuration. You might also want to use a field name that is not
|
|
|
|
specifically named in a detector, but is available as part of the input data.
|
|
|
|
When you use multiple detectors, the use of influencers is recommended as it
|
|
|
|
aggregates results for each influencer entity.

|
|

|
`latency`::
|
2017-07-27 11:25:14 -04:00
|
|
|
(time units) The size of the window in which to expect data that is out of
|
|
|
|
time order. The default value is 0 (no latency). If you specify a non-zero
|
|
|
|
value, it must be greater than or equal to one second. For more information

If set to `true`, the analysis will automatically find correlations
|
|
|
|
between metrics for a given `by` field value and report anomalies when those
|
|
|
|
correlations cease to hold. For example, suppose CPU and memory usage on host A
|
|
|
|
is usually highly correlated with the same metrics on host B. Perhaps this
|
|
|
|
correlation occurs because they are running a load-balanced application.
|
|
|
|
If you enable this property, then anomalies will be reported when, for example,
|
|
|
|
CPU usage on host A is high and the value of CPU usage on host B is low.
|
|
|
|
That is to say, you'll see an anomaly when the CPU of host A is unusual given
|
|
|
|
the CPU of host B.

==== Detector Configuration Objects
|
2017-04-04 18:26:39 -04:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Detector configuration objects specify which data fields a job analyzes.
|
|
|
|
They also specify which analytical functions are used.
|
|
|
|
You can specify multiple detectors for a job.
|
|
|
|
Each detector has the following properties:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`by_field_name`::
|
2017-04-11 22:26:18 -04:00
|
|
|
(string) The field used to split the data.
|
2017-04-04 18:26:39 -04:00
|
|
|
In particular, this property is used for analyzing the splits with respect to their own history.
|
|
|
|
It is used for finding unusual values in the context of the split.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`detector_description`::
|
2017-04-19 13:52:30 -04:00
|
|
|
(string) A description of the detector. For example, `Low event rate`.

|
|
|
|
(integer) A unique identifier for the detector. This identifier is based on
|
|
|
|
the order of the detectors in the `analysis_config`, starting at zero. You can

`exclude_frequent`::
|
2017-04-11 22:26:18 -04:00
|
|
|
(string) Contains one of the following values: `all`, `none`, `by`, or `over`.
|
2017-04-04 18:26:39 -04:00
|
|
|
If set, frequent entities are excluded from influencing the anomaly results.
|

|
|
|
|
`custom_rules`::
|
2018-08-13 09:51:13 -04:00

|
(array) An array of custom rule objects, which enable customizing how the detector works.
|
2018-07-25 11:10:32 -04:00
|
|
|
For example, a rule may dictate to the detector conditions under which results should be skipped.

|
|
|
|
2017-04-19 16:31:07 -04:00
|
|
|
The data description defines the format of the input data when you send data to
|
|
|
|
the job by using the <<ml-post-data,post data>> API. Note that when configure
|
2017-05-02 15:45:42 -04:00

|
a {dfeed}, these properties are automatically set.
|

|
|
|
|
2017-04-19 16:31:07 -04:00

When data is received via the <<ml-post-data,post data>> API, it is not stored
|
2017-05-02 15:45:42 -04:00
|
|
|
in {es}. Only the results for anomaly detection are retained.
|
2017-04-04 18:26:39 -04:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A data description object has the following properties:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`format`::
|
2017-04-19 16:31:07 -04:00
|
|
|
(string) Only `JSON` format is supported at this time.
|
2017-04-04 18:26:39 -04:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`time_field`::
|
2017-04-11 22:26:18 -04:00
|
|
|
(string) The name of the field that contains the timestamp.
|
2017-04-04 18:26:39 -04:00
|
|
|
The default value is `time`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`time_format`::
|
2017-04-11 22:26:18 -04:00
|
|
|
(string) The time format, which can be `epoch`, `epoch_ms`, or a custom pattern.
|
2017-04-04 18:26:39 -04:00
|
|
|
The default value is `epoch`, which refers to UNIX or Epoch time (the number of seconds
|
2017-04-19 13:52:30 -04:00
|
|
|
since 1 Jan 1970).
|
2017-04-04 18:26:39 -04:00
|
|
|
The value `epoch_ms` indicates that time is measured in milliseconds since the epoch.
|
|
|
|
The `epoch` and `epoch_ms` time formats accept either integer or real values. +

|
|
==== Categorization Analyzer
|
|
|
|
|
2018-01-15 11:29:08 -05:00
|
|
|
The categorization analyzer specifies how the `categorization_field` is
|
2018-01-15 10:47:19 -05:00
|
|
|
interpreted by the categorization process. The syntax is very similar to that
|
2018-01-15 11:29:08 -05:00
|
|
|
used to define the `analyzer` in the <<indices-analyze,Analyze endpoint>>.
|
2018-01-15 10:47:19 -05:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The `categorization_analyzer` field can be specified either as a string or as
|
|
|
|
an object.
|
|
|
|
|
2018-01-17 16:11:36 -05:00
|
|
|
If it is a string it must refer to a <<analysis-analyzers,built-in analyzer>> or
|
|
|
|
one added by another plugin.
|
2018-01-15 10:47:19 -05:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If it is an object it has the following properties:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`char_filter`::
|
|
|
|
(array of strings or objects) One or more
|
2018-01-17 16:11:36 -05:00
|
|
|
<<analysis-charfilters,character filters>>. In addition to the built-in
|
|
|
|
character filters, other plugins can provide more character filters. This
|
|
|
|
property is optional. If it is not specified, no character filters are applied
|
|
|
|
prior to categorization. If you are customizing some other aspect of the
|
|
|
|
analyzer and you need to achieve the equivalent of `categorization_filters`
|
|
|
|
(which are not permitted when some other aspect of the analyzer is customized),
|
|
|
|
add them here as
|
|
|
|
<<analysis-pattern-replace-charfilter,pattern replace character filters>>.
|
2018-01-15 10:47:19 -05:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`tokenizer`::
|
|
|
|
(string or object) The name or definition of the
|
2018-01-17 16:11:36 -05:00
|
|
|
<<analysis-tokenizers,tokenizer>> to use after character filters are applied.
|
|
|
|
This property is compulsory if `categorization_analyzer` is specified as an
|
|
|
|
object. Machine learning provides a tokenizer called `ml_classic` that
|
|
|
|
tokenizes in the same way as the non-customizable tokenizer in older versions
|
|
|
|
of the product. If you want to use that tokenizer but change the character or
|
|
|
|
token filters, specify `"tokenizer": "ml_classic"` in your
|
|
|
|
`categorization_analyzer`.
|
2018-01-15 10:47:19 -05:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`filter`::
|
|
|
|
(array of strings or objects) One or more
|
2018-01-17 16:11:36 -05:00
|
|
|
<<analysis-tokenfilters,token filters>>. In addition to the built-in token
|
|
|
|
filters, other plugins can provide more token filters. This property is
|
|
|
|
optional. If it is not specified, no token filters are applied prior to
|
|
|
|
categorization.

If you specify any part of the `categorization_analyzer`, however, any omitted
|
|
|
|
sub-properties are _not_ set to default values.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you are categorizing non-English messages in a language where words are
|
|
|
|
separated by spaces, you might get better results if you change the day or month
|
|
|
|
words in the stop token filter to the appropriate words in your language. If you
|
|
|
|
are categorizing messages in a language where words are not separated by spaces,
|
|
|
|
you must use a different tokenizer as well in order to get sensible
|
|
|
|
categorization results.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
It is important to be aware that analyzing for categorization of machine
|
|
|
|
generated log messages is a little different from tokenizing for search.
|
|
|
|
Features that work well for search, such as stemming, synonym substitution, and
|
|
|
|
lowercasing are likely to make the results of categorization worse. However, in
|
|
|
|
order for drill down from {ml} results to work correctly, the tokens that the
|
|
|
|
categorization analyzer produces must be similar to those produced by the search
|
|
|
|
analyzer. If they are sufficiently similar, when you search for the tokens that
|
|
|
|
the categorization analyzer produces then you find the original document that
|
|
|
|
the categorization field value came from.

|
operate.
|
|
|
|
|
2018-08-13 09:51:13 -04:00

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`actions`::
|

|
If more than one action is specified the effects of all actions are combined.
|
|
|
|
The available actions include: +
|
|
|
|
`skip_result`::: The result will not be created. This is the default value.
|
|

|
Unless you also specify `skip_model_update`, the model will be updated as
|
|
|
|
usual with the corresponding series value.
|
|
|
|
`skip_model_update`::: The value for that series will not be used to update
|
|
|
|
the model. Unless you also specify `skip_result`, the results will be created
|
|
|
|
as usual. This action is suitable when certain values are expected to be

|
consistently anomalous and they affect the model in a way that negatively

|
|
|
|
to `include`.

==== Analysis Limits

Limits can be applied for the resources required to hold the mathematical models in memory.
|
2017-04-19 16:31:07 -04:00
|
|
|
These limits are approximate and can be set per job. They do not control the
|
|
|
|
memory used by other processes, for example the Elasticsearch Java processes.
|
|
|
|
If necessary, you can increase the limits after the job is created.
|

|
|
|
|
The `analysis_limits` object has the following properties:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`categorization_examples_limit`::
|
2017-04-11 22:26:18 -04:00
|
|
|
(long) The maximum number of examples stored per category in memory and
|
2017-04-04 18:26:39 -04:00
|
|
|
in the results data store. The default value is 4. If you increase this value,
|
|
|
|
more examples are available, however it requires that you have more storage available.
|
2017-04-19 16:31:07 -04:00
|
|
|
If you set this value to `0`, no examples are stored. +

|
|
`model_memory_limit`::
|
2017-07-10 11:50:38 -04:00
|
|
|
(long or string) The approximate maximum amount of memory resources that are
|
|
|
|
required for analytical processing. Once this limit is approached, data pruning
|
2017-05-02 18:34:30 -04:00
|
|
|
becomes more aggressive. Upon exceeding this limit, new entities are not
|
2017-08-21 11:51:30 -04:00
|
|
|
modeled. The default value for jobs created in version 6.1 and later is `1024mb`.
|
|
|
|
This value will need to be increased for jobs that are expected to analyze high
|
|
|
|
cardinality fields, but the default is set to a relatively small size to ensure
|
|
|
|
that high resource usage is a conscious decision. The default value for jobs
|
2017-10-25 12:00:53 -04:00
|
|
|
created in versions earlier than 6.1 is `4096mb`.

If you specify a number instead of a string, the units are assumed to be MiB.
|
|
|
|
Specifying a string is recommended for clarity. If you specify a byte size unit
|
|
|
|
of `b` or `kb` and the number does not equate to a discrete number of megabytes,
|
|
|
|
it is rounded down to the closest MiB. The minimum valid value is 1 MiB. If you
|
|
|
|
specify a value less than 1 MiB, an error occurs. For more information about
|
2018-07-24 20:06:46 -04:00
|
|
|
supported byte size units, see <<byte-units,Common options>>.
|
2017-10-25 12:00:53 -04:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If your `elasticsearch.yml` file contains an `xpack.ml.max_model_memory_limit`
|
|
|
|
setting, an error occurs when you try to create jobs that have
|
|
|
|
`model_memory_limit` values greater than that setting. For more information,
|
|
|
|
see <<ml-settings>>.

WARNING: If you enable model plot it can add considerable overhead to the performance
|
2017-06-28 10:32:32 -04:00
|
|
|
of the system; it is not feasible for jobs with many entities.

Model plot provides a simplified and indicative view of the model and its bounds.
|
|
|
|
It does not display complex features such as multivariate correlations or multimodal data.
|
|
|
|
As such, anomalies may occasionally be reported which cannot be seen in the model plot.

Model plot config can be configured when the job is created or updated later. It must be
|
2017-06-28 10:32:32 -04:00
|
|
|
disabled if performance issues are experienced.

The `model_plot_config` object has the following properties:

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`enabled`::
|
2017-04-19 16:31:07 -04:00
|
|
|
(boolean) If true, enables calculation and storage of the model bounds for
|
|
|
|
each entity that is being analyzed. By default, this is not enabled.
|
2017-04-19 13:52:30 -04:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`terms`::
|
2018-04-12 12:59:17 -04:00
|
|
|
experimental[] (string) Limits data collection to this comma separated list of
|
|
|
|
partition or by field values. If terms are not specified or it is an empty
|
|
|
|
string, no filtering is applied. For example, "CPU,NetworkIn,DiskWrites".
|
|
|
|
Wildcards are not supported. Only the specified `terms` can be viewed when
|
|
|
|
using the Single Metric Viewer.
