Hi,
Thank you for your amazing products. I'm trying to use Central Management to configure filebeats that run in their own Docker containers. The problem is that the filebeat containers may restart, and when this happens, the filebeat is registered as a new beat in Central Management. I would like to know if there is a way to have "unique" beats in Central Management, so that if a filebeat with a given name or tag attempts to register again, it is not registered as a new beat.
After talking with the team, my solution would work in your case, but what you actually want is support for ephemeral client, we are planning to support that use case for APM but we do not have a clear plan for it yet.
