We are using AWS EKS and follow github and elastic doc to install Metricbeat

I've feeling this is EKS side problem, but would like to know see if any chance there can fix in metricbeat config level ?

Error :  
// grpc: received message larger than max (XXXXX vs. 4194304) error

When exactly do you get this error? Can you share your Metricbeat config + logs?
