I had enabled self-monitoring in Kibana and it was working. I was told to migrate the dashboards, searches (etc) from one cluster to another. I exported the saved objects out of one cluster and imported **some** of them into the new cluster. After the import, monitoring was broken so I disabled it, thinking I would just re-enable it and it would start working again. But, that's not the case. It says 'No monitoring data found' and when I click "Or, set up with self monitoring", it just whizzes and whirs for a bit and does nothing. Sometimes, it will simply state "We couldn't activate monitoring". I'm not sure if it's important or not but both clusters are running 7.17.4.

What have I broken and how can I fix it? Any help you can offer is greatly appreciated.

P.S.

I just saw that I sometimes get there error below:

_Monitoring Request Error_

\*[connect\_transport\_exception: [connect\_transport\_exception] Reason: [192.168.50.20:443] connect\_timeout[30s]: \*

_HTTP 500_
