I am not sure since when this is happening, but my filebeat has stopped collecting the logs of elastic pods that I have deployed using eck.

In total I do have these 3 pods:

```auto
elastic-es-masterdata-100-0
elastic-es-masterdata-100-1
elastic-es-masterdata-100-2

```

kubectl get logs for `elastic-es-masterdata-100-0`

```auto

```

Shows a bunch of logs. So everything is fine there.  
However, on the filebeat pod that is running on the same node and therefore should be responsible for collecting the related logs I get the following message:

Someone having an idea?  
Log collection for all other pods is working fine

The response here is very slow if any ...  
my filebeat also stoped to collect logs ..  
running on ECK in EKS

Hi @umen any update on your side regarding that issue?

@raulgs  
yes , for me it is internal use and i don't see point to create test certificate so what i did is

```auto
output.elasticsearch:
      hosts: ['${ELASTICSEARCH_HOST:https://172.10.10.108}:${ELASTICSEARCH_PORT:9200}']
      ssl.verification_mode: 'none'  

```

Also pay attention that i used IP and not the host , as the DNS not working.  
Another helpful hint i got from running this in not of the filebeat pods :

```auto
filebeat test output -e -d "*

```

But now i have many other problems related to kibna ...

this did not work for me unfortunately.  
the elastic pod logs are still not being collected 🤔

@raulgs  
enter to one of your pods and execute :

```auto
filebeat test output -e -d "*"

```

post here the output

I can't see anything suspicious here,  
but if you don't get the logs you most see in one of the endpoints of elastic some error.  
What about looking at the logs in :  
elastic - cluster master nodes  
Kibana  
you can also look at the path of the logs in the nodes /var/logs/container

That is what I was expecting.  
The Filebeat pods are collecting all logs expect the elastic pods.  
Which is kind of strange as we haven't changed anything other then the version of filebeat and elastic during the last couple of month...  
So not sure what else to check in regards of that. As shown in my first message - this is the error that I get in the filebeat logs regarding the elastic pods.
