Is there a best way to log the logs produced by Elasticsearch itself. I want to monitor All of the logs of all of the elasticsearch nodes in my cluster. Is there a guide for this that uses logstash/beats/ or something to send the logs elasticsearch itself creates to another small cluster so i can manage all of the logs elasticsearch produces from one place? ---

p.s. Trying to find information about doing this is hard because running a google search for this exact information, due to elasticsearch being mainly used for logging everything else, makes it hard to query. ---

Keep an eye on filebeat, there will be a module coming for it very soon 🙂 ---

Elasticsearch doesn't log that, you may need to look at enabling slowlog at a level of 0ms so it logs everything and then look at that. ---
