Description

👋 howdy team!

Same as CAT Thread pool, we frequently ask users to check for incrementing circuit breakers as part of investigating rejected requests. Would you kindly consider making a tabular format for easier human quick-scanning/readability?

Like from

$ cat nodes_stats.json | jq '.nodes[].breakers' | head -16
{
  "model_inference": {
    "limit_size_in_bytes": 3143630848,
    "limit_size": "2.9gb",
    "estimated_size_in_bytes": 0,
    "estimated_size": "0b",
    "overhead": 1.0,
    "tripped": 0
  },
  "eql_sequence": {
    "limit_size_in_bytes": 3143630848,
    "limit_size": "2.9gb",
    "estimated_size_in_bytes": 0,
    "estimated_size": "0b",
    "overhead": 1.0,
    "tripped": 10

to tabular

# GET _cat/circuit_breaker/_all
node                  breaker          tripped
instance-0000000000   model_inference    0
instance-0000000000   eql_sequence      10
