I'm trying to get metricbeat running monitoring our elasticsearch cluster which is managed by docker swarm. See: [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/configuring-metricbeat.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/configuring-metricbeat.html) Looks quite easy, but I can't figure out how I have to enable the elasticsearch-xpack module after the metricbeat container is up??? /edit Nevermind, seems like I've confused a few things. It's working, sorry for the noise ๐Ÿ™‚ ---
