I've gone through other posts with this same issue, and I have come up empty handed. I've set up ELK rigs before, and this is the first time encountering this problem.
General Info:
*New cluster with 4 nodes. 1 for kibana, 3 for E and L.
*v7.2.1
*each node is 32GB, 4VPU machine with SSD for both OS and data vols.
*CentOS 7.7.1908
*All VMs are on same subnet in an Azure VNET. There are no firewall rules between any nodes. Iptables and selinux are disabled.
*TLS is not configured anywhere
The cluster is in dev and I'm only ingesting a small amount of logs. Around 2GB per day. Mostly syslog and audit/secure logs.
Logs are appearing in Elasticsearch, and I can interact with them in Kibana. Yet I keep getting the following error from filebeat.
Jan 26 02:38:17 elk-nodes-0.int filebeat[25793]: 2020-01-26T02:38:17.861Z ERROR logstash/async.go:256 Failed to publish events caused by: read tcp 10.1.3.4:45488->10.1.3.4:5044: read: connection reset by peer

I have tried playing with various config settings in both Filebeat and Logstash, and so far I haven't had any luck. I've also tried removing 2 of the 3 nodes and so I'm just communicating with the same machine. I can telnet to the appropriate ports w/o issue. So I'm really baffled as to what I'm doing wrong. And given that I do see entries in Elasticsearch indexes, could this all be a false positive? This rig MUST pass an audit so I cannot lose any logs, therefore I would rather figure this out than just assume it's all OK.
thx in advanced for any help on this!
here is my filebeat.yml. the system module is enabled too for syslog/secure log files:
