I have an ELK 6.7 and an ELK 7 both on single nodes. They're configured the same with metricbeat installed to monitor the nodes. When I look at the Host Overview Dashboard on ELK 7 I see:

 ![elk_error](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/2/8/282653e98a8a3dcc31aa61461b34762f77b6f957.png)

This does not occur on the ELK 6.7 node. Are there any changes between version which would cause this?

Elasticsearch 7.0 uses keyword field for aggregation of fields with text type.

You need to upgrade Metricbeat to 7.0 version: [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/beats/libbeat/7.0/upgrading-6-to-7.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/beats/libbeat/7.0/upgrading-6-to-7.html)

Metricbeat is at version 7:

> [root@elk ~]# rpm -qa|grep metric  
> metricbeat-7.0.0-1.x86\_64

Is Elasticsearch index template for Metricbeat [upgraded](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/beats/libbeat/7.0/upgrading-6-to-7.html#upgrade-index-template)?  
Are Kibana dashboards for Metrcibeat [upgraded](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/beats/libbeat/7.0/upgrading-6-to-7.html#_upgrade_dashboards)?

This is a fresh install of ELK 7 across the board, Elastic, Logstash, Kibana, Metricbeat.

Do you send the data through LS? Did you load the index template? What is the versioning scheme you use for the indices?

Yes, my data is going through ES. Below is my metricbeat.yml:

> [root@elk metricbeat]# cat metricbeat.yml |grep -v #|grep -v -e '^$'

```auto
> metricbeat.config.modules:
> path: ${path.config}/conf.d/*.yml
> reload.period: 10s
> reload.enabled: false
> metricbeat.max_start_delay: 10s
> metricbeat.modules:
> - module: system
> metricsets:
> enabled: true
> period: 10s
> processes: ['.*']
> output.elasticsearch:
> enabled: true
> hosts: ["localhost:9200"]
> setup.dashboards.enabled: true
> setup.dashboards.directory: ${path.home}/kibana
> setup.template.enabled: true

What is the reason you have setup template in there? In general I would not recommend to modify the defaults (it looks like the defaults?) if not needed. With 7.0 Beats start to use ILM by default.

I changed setup.template.enabled to false and restarted metricbeat. I deleted the metricbeat index to get a fresh start but I still see the same errors. Not sure what I'm missing here.
