Documentation in the beats agent shows that the docker base image os is CentOS 7 but its actually Ubuntu. This issue is also present in the v7.17.10 documentation.

Ex: [Run Filebeat on Docker | Filebeat Reference [8.8] | Elastic](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/beats/filebeat/8.8/running-on-docker.html)
