Note

Available in 2.1

The search command allows for searching OpenTSDB to reteive a list of time series or associated meta data. Search does not return actual data points or time series objects stored in the data table. Use the query tools to access that data. Currently only the lookup command is implemented.

Lookup

Lookup queries use either the meta data table or the main data table to determine what time series are associated with a given metric, tag name, tag value, tag pair or combination thereof. For example, if you want to know what metrics are available for a tag pair host=web01 you can execute a lookup to find out.
