Hi,

I have installed ELK on Linux box. My ELasticSearch is indexing all the components sent by logstash properly, but ELasticSearch is getting stopped automatically without giving error in logs.

**I am using below command to start the ES:-**

./elasticsearch -Des.insecure.allow.root=true

**Below are the logs:-**

**Below is the java process captured, while the elastic search was running :-**

Please let me know the any solution for same.
