Hi,
I'm Build remote monitoring cluster elastic stack to monitor elastic production environment.
I'm install metricbeats on the target and success to configure elasticsearch-xpack and kibana-xpack, and I see metrics on monitoring cluster.
but when I try to configure beat-xpack module I get error :
> ERROR module/wrapper.go:259 Error fetching data for metricset beat.stats: error making http request: Get "[https://xxx.xxxx.cloudapp.azure.com:5066/stats](https://xxx.xxxx.cloudapp.azure.com:5066/stats)": dial tcp 137.116.201.167:5066: connect: connection refused
the module file beat-xpack.yml looks like this :
- module: beat
xpack.enabled: true
metricsets:
- stats
- state
period: 10s
hosts: ["[https://xxx.xxx.cloudapp.azure.com:5066](https://xxx.xxx.cloudapp.azure.com:5066)"]
username: "xxxx"
password: "xxxxx"
ssl.verification: "none"
http.enabled: true
What I'm missing ?
Thank's for your help....

Hi!
Have you enabled Beat's monitoring port?

Hi,
What do you mean ? need to add port parameter to beat-xpack.yml ?

I see in your config that `http.enabled: true` is on module's level but I guess this should on top level of Metricbeat's config.
See more info at [Use Metricbeat to send monitoring data | Metricbeat Reference [7.16] | Elastic](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/beats/metricbeat/current/monitoring-metricbeat-collection.html).
The error you are hitting indicates that the monitoring endpoint is not reachable.

Hi,
I add `http.enabled: true`. and work as reference you send.
**add this lines to metricbeats.yml :**
monitoring.enabled: false
http.enabled: true
http.port: 5067
monitoring.cluster\_uuid: "5p4sQBp2SjO2TOI5lPGigw"
**beat-xpack.yml :**
- module: beat
xpack.enabled: true
metricsets:
- stats
- state
period: 10s
hosts: ["[https://xxx.xxxx.xxx.xxx.com:5067](https://xxx.xxxx.xxx.xxx.com:5067)"]
username: "remote\_monitoring\_user"
password: "xxxxxxxxxxx"
ssl.verification: "none"
http.enabled: true
http.host: "xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx"
http.port: 5067
still get the same error , please, what am I missing, ?
