# Monitor Using Health+ Dashboard for Confluent Platform #### IMPORTANT **Confluent Health+ is in the End-of-Life (EOL) process.** Health+ is deprecated and users should plan to migrate to Unified Stream Manager (USM). While Health+ remains operational for existing users, it is scheduled to be retired, or to sunset, on December 31, 2026. Starting with Confluent Platform version 8.1, Health+ is discontinued for new deployments and Unified Stream Manager is the recommended alternative for all users. To begin your migration planning, see [Unified Stream Manager (USM) in Confluent Platform](../usm/overview.md#usm-overview). Access the Health+ Monitoring Dashboard with the following steps. 1. In your on-premises Confluent Platform cluster, [enable telemetry for Health+](enable-health-plus.md#enable-health-plus). 2. Log in to [Confluent Cloud](https://confluent.cloud/login). 3. Navigate to [Clusters](https://confluent.cloud/health-plus/clusters) to open the Health+ clusters page. 4. Click the cluster tile for your Confluent Platform deployment to open the monitoring dashboard. ## Dashboard features Your Health+ metrics are organized into a convenient dashboard with the following health categories. Each category has an overview page that you can click into to see details.  Each metric is displayed as a time-series graph showing the most recent data. Click the dropdown to set the time period you want to view, which can range from the last hour to the last `30` days.  Hover over a graph to see details about the metric at a specific time. If there are multiple graphs, cursor lines indicating the values of other metrics at the same sample time appear.  Click a graph to open the details view for the metric. Hover over the graph to show the cursor, and click to lock the cursor to a specific sample time. If you pick a different time window, the locked cursor remains visible at the selected sample time.  ## Dashboards and metrics The following sections list the available dashboards and metrics that you can monitor. ### Kafka cluster Metrics for your Kafka cluster deployment. - **Leaders:** number of leaders on the current broker - **Offline partitions:** number of partitions that don’t have an active leader - **Under replicated partitions:** number of under-replicated partitions - **Brokers:** number of brokers in your cluster - **Under min ISR partitions:** number of partitions that have an in-sync replicas count less than `minIsr` - **Active controller count:** number of active controllers - **Unclean leader elections:** total number of unclean leader elections ### System Metrics for the system that’s hosting your Kafka cluster. - **Volume utilization:** percentage of disk usage across brokers - **Broker disk usage:** sum of disk usage across brokers, in GB ### Producers Metrics for producers on your Kafka Server. - **Producer broker latency:** maximum producer latency across brokers - **Failed produce requests:** topic failed produce rate ### Consumers Metrics for consumer groups on your Kafka Server. - **Consumer broker latency:** maximum consumer latency across brokers - **Failed consume requests:** topic failed fetch rate ### Throughput Number of bytes produced and consumed per cluster and per broker. - **Cluster production:** current cluster production being used - **Broker production:** sum of current production across brokers - **Cluster consumption:** current cluster consumption being used - **Broker consumption:** sum of current consumption across brokers ### Thread utilization - **Network processor pool usage:** maximum network pool usage across brokers - **Request IO usage:** maximum request IO usage across brokers ### Topics - **Active topics:** total active topics in your cluster - **Topics with consumer lag** total topics presenting consumer lag (only for brokers running Confluent Platform) ### Connect Metrics about your Connect cluster. - **Failed connectors:** number of connectors that have failed - **Degraded connectors:** number of connectors that are running in a degraded state - **Running connectors:** number of running connectors - **Dead letter produce requests:** number of DLQ produce requests ### ksqlDB Metrics about your ksqlDB cluster. - **Running queries:** number of running persistent queries - **Error queries:** number of persistent queries in an error state - **Error rate:** number of messages that were consumed but not processed ### Settings Access settings for the Health+ cluster. - **Cluster name** - **Cluster ID** - **Cluster type** ## Next Steps - [Subscribe to notifications](enable-health-plus.md#enable-health-plus-notifications) - [Set up Intelligent Alerts](health-plus-alerts.md#health-plus-alerts) - [Telemetry Reporter Metrics Reference for Confluent Platform](telemetry-reporter-metrics.md#telemetry-reporter-metrics)
