Hello,  
I'm trying to add monitoring to logstash  
I have elasticsearch,logstash and kibana installed on one server (version 5.5).  
I installed x-pack on logstash and since then i cannot start elasticsearch.  
After that I installed x-pack also on elasticsearch (should I ? ) and i got error :  
[ERROR][o.e.x.m.e.l.LocalExporter] failed to set monitoring pipeline [xpack\_monitoring\_6]  
org.elasticsearch.cluster.metadata.ProcessClusterEventTimeoutException: failed to process cluster event (put-pipeline-xpack\_monitoring\_6) within 30s

should x-pack be installed on elasticsearch and kibana as well if i want to monitor only logstash ?  
If yes, what am i missing ?  
If no, why elasticseach not start after the installation ?  
i got error :  
Unable to connect to Elasticsearch at [http://localhost:9200](http://localhost:9200).

thanks for you help

update :  
i removed the xpack installation from elasticsearch and it is working now  
but i don't have xpack configuration in logstash.yml after the installation.  
why is that ?
