I have ELB set up running in kubernetes. But seeing following logs in filebeats
2021-11-15T18:08:27.786Z ERROR [publisher_pipeline_output] pipeline/output.go:154 Failed to connect to backoff(elasticsearch(http://elasticsearch:9200)): Connection marked as failed because the onConnect callback failed: resource 'filebeat-7.14.0' exists, but it is not an alias

Following is my configuration I am using

# ========================== Filebeat global options ===========================
# Registry data path. If a relative path is used, it is considered relative to the
# data path.
#filebeat.registry.path: ${path.data}/registry
# The permissions mask to apply on registry data, and meta files. The default
# value is 0600. Must be a valid Unix-style file permissions mask expressed in
# octal notation. This option is not supported on Windows.
#filebeat.registry.file_permissions: 0600
# The timeout value that controls when registry entries are written to disk
# (flushed). When an unwritten update exceeds this value, it triggers a write
# to disk. When flush is set to 0s, the registry is written to disk after each
# batch of events has been published successfully. The default value is 0s.
#filebeat.registry.flush: 0s
# Starting with Filebeat 7.0, the registry uses a new directory format to store
# Filebeat state. After you upgrade, Filebeat will automatically migrate a 6.x
# registry file to use the new directory format. If you changed
# filebeat.registry.path while upgrading, set filebeat.registry.migrate_file to
# point to the old registry file.
#filebeat.registry.migrate_file: ${path.data}/registry
# By default Ingest pipelines are not updated if a pipeline with the same ID
# already exists. If this option is enabled Filebeat overwrites pipelines
# everytime a new Elasticsearch connection is established.

# ---------------------------- Elasticsearch Output ----------------------------
output.elasticsearch:
# Boolean flag to enable or disable the output module.
enabled: true
# Array of hosts to connect to.
# Scheme and port can be left out and will be set to the default (http and 9200)
# In case you specify and additional path, the scheme is required: http://localhost:9200/path
# IPv6 addresses should always be defined as: https://[2001:db8::1]:9200
hosts: ['${ELASTICSEARCH_HOST:elasticsearch}:${ELASTICSEARCH_PORT:9200}']
# Set gzip compression level.

# Dictionary of HTTP parameters to pass within the URL with index operations.
#parameters:
#param1: value1
#param2: value2
# Number of workers per Elasticsearch host.
#worker: 1
# Optional index name. The default is "filebeat" plus date

# In case you modify this pattern you must update setup.template.name and setup.template.pattern accordingly.

# Optional ingest node pipeline. By default no pipeline will be used.

# the indexing operation doesn't succeed after this many retries, the events are
# dropped. The default is 3.
max_retries: 3
# The maximum number of events to bulk in a single Elasticsearch bulk API index request.
# The default is 50.
bulk_max_size: 50
# The number of seconds to wait before trying to reconnect to Elasticsearch
# after a network error. After waiting backoff.init seconds, the Beat
# tries to reconnect. If the attempt fails, the backoff timer is increased
# exponentially up to backoff.max. After a successful connection, the backoff
# timer is reset. The default is 1s.
backoff.init: 1s
# The maximum number of seconds to wait before attempting to connect to
# Elasticsearch after a network error. The default is 60s.
backoff.max: 60s
# Configure HTTP request timeout before failing a request to Elasticsearch.
timeout: 90
# ====================== Index Lifecycle Management (ILM) ======================
# Configure index lifecycle management (ILM). These settings create a write
# alias and add additional settings to the index template. When ILM is enabled,
# output.elasticsearch.index is ignored, and the write alias is used to set the
# index name.
# Enable ILM support. Valid values are true, false, and auto. When set to auto
# (the default), the Beat uses index lifecycle management when it connects to a
# cluster that supports ILM; otherwise, it creates daily indices.
setup.ilm.enabled: true
# Set the prefix used in the index lifecycle write alias name. The default alias
# name is 'filebeat-%{[agent.version]}'.
setup.ilm.rollover_alias: 'filebeat-%{[agent.version]}'
# Set the rollover index pattern. The default is "%{now/d}-000001".
setup.ilm.pattern: "{now/d}-000001"
# Set the lifecycle policy name. The default policy name is
# 'beatname'.
setup.ilm.policy_name: "filebeat-rollover-7-days"
# The path to a JSON file that contains a lifecycle policy configuration. Used
# to load your own lifecycle policy.
setup.ilm.policy_file: /usr/share/filebeat/policy/ilm-policy.json
# Disable the check for an existing lifecycle policy. The default is true. If
# you disable this check, set setup.ilm.overwrite: true so the lifecycle policy
# can be installed.
setup.ilm.check_exists: true
# Overwrite the lifecycle policy at startup. The default is false.
setup.ilm.overwrite: false
# ============================= X-Pack Monitoring ==============================
# Filebeat can export internal metrics to a central Elasticsearch monitoring
# cluster. This requires xpack monitoring to be enabled in Elasticsearch. The
# reporting is disabled by default.
# Set to true to enable the monitoring reporter.
# monitoring.enabled: true
# Sets the UUID of the Elasticsearch cluster under which monitoring data for this
# Filebeat instance will appear in the Stack Monitoring UI. If output.elasticsearch
# is enabled, the UUID is derived from the Elasticsearch cluster referenced by output.elasticsearch.
#monitoring.cluster_uuid:
# ================================== Logging ===================================
# There are four options for the log output: file, stderr, syslog, eventlog
# The file output is the default.
# Sets log level. The default log level is info.
# Available log levels are: error, warning, info, debug
logging.level: info
# Enable debug output for selected components. To enable all selectors use ["*"]
# Other available selectors are "beat", "publisher", "service"
# Multiple selectors can be chained.
#logging.selectors: [ ]
# Send all logging output to stderr. The default is false.
#logging.to_stderr: false
# Send all logging output to syslog. The default is false.
#logging.to_syslog: false
# Send all logging output to Windows Event Logs. The default is false.
#logging.to_eventlog: false
# If enabled, Filebeat periodically logs its internal metrics that have changed
# in the last period. For each metric that changed, the delta from the value at
# the beginning of the period is logged. Also, the total values for
# all non-zero internal metrics are logged on shutdown. The default is true.
logging.metrics.enabled: true
# The period after which to log the internal metrics. The default is 30s.
logging.metrics.period: 30s
# Logging to rotating files. Set logging.to_files to false to disable logging to
# files.
logging.to_files: false
# logging.files:
# Configure the path where the logs are written. The default is the logs directory
# under the home path (the binary location).
#path: /var/log/filebeat
# The name of the files where the logs are written to.
#name: filebeat
# Configure log file size limit. If limit is reached, log file will be
# automatically rotated
#rotateeverybytes: 10485760 # = 10MB
# Number of rotated log files to keep. Oldest files will be deleted first.
#keepfiles: 7
# The permissions mask to apply when rotating log files. The default value is 0600.
# Must be a valid Unix-style file permissions mask expressed in octal notation.
#permissions: 0600
# Enable log file rotation on time intervals in addition to size-based rotation.
# Intervals must be at least 1s. Values of 1m, 1h, 24h, 7*24h, 30*24h, and 365*24h
# are boundary-aligned with minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, and years as
# reported by the local system clock. All other intervals are calculated from the
# Unix epoch. Defaults to disabled.
#interval: 0
# Rotate existing logs on startup rather than appending to the existing
# file. Defaults to true.
# rotateonstartup: true
# Rotated files are either suffixed with a number e.g. filebeat.1 when
# renamed during rotation. Or when set to date, the date is added to
# the end of the file. On rotation a new file is created, older files are untouched.
#suffix: count
# Set to true to log messages in JSON format.
#logging.json: false
If I disable setup.ilm.enabled: false
I don't see any error
Any idea what I am doing wrong here ?
