The exporter currently exposes metrics directly around snapshots but it would be good to also expose metrics from SLM [1] around scheduled snapshots.
When using SLM snapshots a scheduled snapshot can fail without the underlying Elastic snapshots having any failure, e.g. with ignore_unavailable set to false if I purposefully turn a index red you can get a snapshot to fail like the below:
This is not represented in the existing snapshot metrics such as elasticsearch_snapshot_stats_snapshot_number_of_failures, presumably as the actual snapshot is not attempted, however it is present in the SLM stats [2] and can be tied back to a specific policy:
