I'm running metricbeat in container [Run Metricbeat on Docker | Metricbeat Reference [8.4] | Elastic](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/beats/metricbeat/current/running-on-docker.html) but don't have any idea how to disable systems module or any other module ?

tried to disable in metricbeat.yaml

```auto
 
metricbeat.modules:
- module: system
  enabled: false

```

but still its enabled in container

```auto
# metricbeat modules list
Enabled:
system

```
