Exiting: Failed to create Beat meta file: open /usr/share/heartbeat/data/meta.json.new: permission denied

Elastic Stack Beats

I setup Elastic Cloud on Kubernetes on Openshift 4.6. Right now with the following services (Elasticsearch/Kibana/Filebeat)

I am now failing to get Heartbeat running. I had it running on another Testcluster without any issues.

I found this Grant privileged permissions to Beats | Elastic Cloud on Kubernetes [1.8] | Elastic
but the file path doesnt exist on the worker nodes

Just so I'm following, are you using ECK here?
