Example requests

The following example request gives information about thread pools on all nodes:

GET _cat/thread_pool?v

If you want to get information for more than one thread pool, separate the thread pool names with commas:

GET _cat/thread_pool/thread_pool_name_1,thread_pool_name_2,thread_pool_name_3

If you want to limit the information to a specific thread pool, add the thread pool name after your query:

GET _cat/thread_pool/<thread_pool_name>?v
