Can't turn on monitoring

Elastic Stack Kibana
1

Hi,

I have installed Kibana for the new cluster.

When going to Stack Monitoring. It shows “We couldn't activate monitoring”

In addition log prints “Unable to bulk upload the stats payload to the local cluster”

Dev tools and Index management are working properly.

I tried the following:

  • Checked kibana status (http://10.0.59.155:5601/status) --> Seems OK.

  • Checked if .monitoring index exist --> does not exist.

  • Checked if monitoring.collection.enabled=true --> true

  • Restarted the nodes and kibana.

kibana

Is it familiar to you?

Can you assist on it?

Thanks,

Avner

Welcome to our community! :smiley:

Can you please post the entire Kibana and Elasticsearch log for us?
