How to start Metricbeat as non root user?

Elastic Stack Beats
1

Hello,
I am sending logs using Metricbeat system module to Elasticsearch. I have to send as a non root user, however it keeps on sending both as non root and root user. I tried to follow documentations to send only as non root user, but I couldn't achieve my goal. Can you help me or can you provide me with documents to help me out with my situation?

Thanks,
Görkem

Hey @Gorkem_Keskin, welcome to discuss :slight_smile:

What do you mean by this? Metricbeat can be running as root or as non root user, but not both.

How are you currently running Metricbeat?
