Hi,

I'm a newbie on metrics issues. I wanted to monitor the metrics of my cassandra cluster in a production in environment. I have tried using packetbeat with the configuration 

packetbeat.protocols.cassandra:
  #Cassandra port for traffic monitoring.
  ports: [9042]

output.kafka:
  enabled: true
  hosts: ["ipadresskafka"}]

  topic: mycassandrametrictopic


This config works but I'm not actaully getting the metrics of my cassandra cluster. All I get is the metrics related to the QUERIES going through cassandra.

I read somewhere that one could monitor the metrics of Cassandra through jmx. This project does a great deal in that line but they don't address the cassandra metrics there.

Any clue on what I can used to get those cassandra metrics.
Thanks.

Check out http://cassandra.apache.org/doc/latest/operating/metrics.html for details on the metrics and at the bottom of the page theres references to how to set up the config for the addthis reporter config which is also described in http://www.datastax.com/dev/blog/pluggable-metrics-reporting-in-cassandra-2-0-2 (a little older reference).
