I have two ES Clusters on two different AWS instances.  
I want to have only one kibana for both the clusters i.e one kibana can run on either AWS instance.  
If that is possible, what would be the config for kibana.

Thankyou in advance.

You will need to implement a Tribe node to do that - [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/modules-tribe.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/modules-tribe.html)
