org.elasticsearch.xpack.monitoring.exporter.ExportException: [.monitoring-es-7-2019.05.09] IndexCreationException[failed to create index [.monitoring-es-7-2019.05.09]]; nested: ValidationException[Validation Failed: 1: this action would add [2] total shards, but this cluster currently has [996]/[1000] maximum shards open;]

Looks like you have to many shards for 1 node.
The best way would be to reduce your Shards. temporary you can incress the 1000 Shards limit, see: https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/allocation-total-shards.html

I recommend to read this Article: https://www.elastic.co/blog/how-many-shards-should-i-have-in-my-elasticsearch-cluster

Best,
