Monitoring JetStream

Server Metrics

JetStream has a /jsz HTTP endpoint and advisories available.

Advisories

JetStream publishes a number of advisories that can inform operations about the health and the state of the Streams. These advisories are published to normal NATS subjects below $JS.EVENT.ADVISORY.> and one can store these advisories in JetStream Streams if desired.

The command nats event --js-advisory can view all these events on your console. The Golang package jsm.go can consume and render these events and have data types for each of these events.

All these events have JSON Schemas that describe them, schemas can be viewed on the CLI using the nats schema show <schema kind> command.
