Hi @harshbajaj16, Yes, it is created today and I am able to create it on kibana. It means metricbeat creates an index on daily basis. Thank you. ---

Hi @mamta, is your filebeat and metricbeat running on same machine or different?? If your are able to get metric beat index then the same should happen with filebeat also. there is something which we are not able to find because metricbeat and filebeat configuration with elasticsearch is almost same.

Hi @harshbajaj16, I have tried by uninstalling metricbeat from that server. So currently only filebeat is running on server. I checked elasticsearch and filebeat logs but same logs is generated. Elasticsearch and kibana not able to generate filebeat index. Will I try to reinstall filebeat again? Thank you. ---

Hi @mamta, There is no need to uninstall filebeat & metricbeat. You need to check that why your log file is not harvesting in filebeat. Is filepath correct? Regards, ---
