I’m having trouble trying to add Fleet and Agent to one of our existing elastic clusters (EDIT: es, kibana, agent all 9.1.5, in ECK managed cluster in an AWS EKS cluster). I was successfully able to do this on a newly built cluster in demo environment but in the next env up on an existing cluster, Fleet Server never seems to try to connect to the configured elastic cluster, instead trying to connect to localhost:9200. Note that this is using an istio service mesh, with tls/mtls disabled and again works in a lower environment with istio enabled and all other settings the same (though there are probably nuances between these environments). I’ve tried enabling debug logging from fleet but documentation on this seems to be sparse and I’ve been unable to get any additional logs out. elastic-agent diagnostics does show the correct es endpoint is found in local-config.yml and fleet-server.yml, but computed-config.yaml and pre-config.yaml show localhost:9200 Connecting to the fleet server agent pod in shell, I’m able to curl successfully to the es endpoint. fleet-server-output-request.txt shows the below: `2025/11/18 19:33:18.290055 TLS settings detected` `2025/11/18 19:33:18.290058 Proxy disable=false url=` `2025/11/18
