Could you provide more details about what you want to achieve ?  
If you are trying to setup FileBeat to collect logs from files on the K8S nodes there is a recipe in the [`config/recipes/beats`](https://github.com/elastic/cloud-on-k8s/blob/master/config/recipes/beats/2_filebeat-kubernetes.yaml) directory of the ECK repository.
