Hi all,  
I'm trying to setup wazuh cluster in aws with AWS ES instead of regular elastic search service.

The problem i'm facing is after making changes in /etc/kibana/kibana.yml:

kibana.index: ".kibana"  
elasticsearch.hosts: ["https://my\_VPC\_es\_endpoint:443"]

They're both in same subnet group.  
Below are the logs generated from : journalctl -u kibana.service

I keep getting kibana server is not ready yet  
and something like this :

```
Sep 13 18:48:54 ip-172-16-13-237.ec2.internal systemd[1]: [/etc/systemd/system/kibana.service:3] Unknown lvalue 'StartLimitIntervalSec' in section 'Unit'

Hello,  
AWS ES forums will be a better place to ask about issues with it. We will help with self-hosted Elasticsearch, but for third-party services we really have no access to what settings and/or setup they do so we do not have enough information to help.
