I have following problem with Kibana, which just installed with whole ELK stack on fresh system Ubuntu 20.04.4 LTS:  
`Kibana server is not ready yet.`  
Error in logs:

```auto
{"ecs":{"version":"8.0.0"},"@timestamp":"2022-05-15T15:32:25.451+00:00","message":"Unable to retrieve version information from Elasticsearch nodes. getaddrinfo EAI_AGAIN elasticsearch","log":{"level":"ERROR","logger":"elasticsearch-service"},"process":{"pid":3897},"trace":{"id":"b2add3a6bb3f0429649b82219b489cad"},"transaction":{"id":"b53caeed1f19bf23"}}

```

Packages version:

```auto
ii elasticsearch 8.2.0 amd64 Distributed RESTful search engine built for the cloud
ii kibana 8.2.0 amd64 Explore and visualize your Elasticsearch data

```

Hi,

Please check this post, and if possible share the Kibana yaml file.
