Description

When we monitor LS and do not monitor ES with either metricbeat or self-monitoring, we don't see the LS cluster dashboard unless we setup the ES monitoring. It is because cluster UUID is decided based on ES monitoring (.monitoring-es*) data.

  • Self-monitoring
    • Caveat (mostly confusing) is, we enabled self-monitoring in logstash.yml but we don't see it unless we enable self monitoring on Kibana.
  • Metricbeat monitoring
    • Similarly with self-monitoring, the caveat, we configured cluster_uuid in logstash.yml but we don't see it unless we enable elasticsearch-xpack module of the metricbeat and configure to monitor the Elasticsearch as well.

Some confusing examples users asked:

Expectation

We need to highlight these cases in the docs to clear out the confusions.
