I have configured Monit version 5.6 on an Ubuntu 14.04 server. There are few check like filesystem usage, remote host connectivity check and service monitoring. Now, when I check the web gui of monit, I see something like this; enter image description here

Now, there are many parameters that monit shows by default; Load average, CPU, Memory etc. I want all these in a log file so that I can transport the metrics to Elasticsearch.

However, when I check the log file, it shows like this;

How do I log all the metrics that monit shows on the web gui to the log file?

As far as I know, this is not possible out-of-the-box. You could try to "bend" the M/Monit collector feature from the Monit configuration file set mmonit http://monit:monit@192.168.1.10:8080/collector to send data to an Elastic search and parse it with an ES filter. You could either request the HTML page and parse or the same without the output of command monit status.
