I'm attempting to integrate Logstash between Beats and Elasticsearch in Kubernetes. I'm utilizing the official Helm Chart available at artifacthub. I followed the guide provided by Elastic at secure-logstash-connections Currently, I'm using a self-managed Elasticsearch cluster, and I'm encountering difficulty locating the `ca.key` file required to establish the SSL connection between Logstash and Elasticsearch. According to the guide, if the Elasticsearch cluster is self-managed, there's no need to create a new CA, and if I break it, it affects Kibana and co. I just can find the ca.crt in the config folder
