Hello, I'm trying to get an index to show more than one server's logs. My test server I get the logs, but my main ELK I don't see their logs in kibana.

In kibana I made an index with filebeat\*, but this index only shows my test server.

How can I get both the syslogs of my test and ELK servers onto kibana?

Thanks.

Check your servers filebeat log output. Any errors?

This is what I'm getting:  
INFO [monitoring] log/log.go:141 Non-zero metrics in the last 30s

Is this considered as an error?

It's not an error. It gives you insight into the internal metrics of the Beat.  
Could you share the configuration and format it using `</>`?
