Is it possible to use a single kibana for monitoring and production server

Hi ,

I have a 5 node elasticsearch cluster (Production). 3 master node and 2 data node . Kibana(Production) is connected to one of the data node. Xpack is enabled in all machines. This setup is working well .

Now I am planning to set up a monitoring machine out of this production cluster . This monitoring machine contain ES and Xpack . My question is may I use the same kibana using in production cluster is use for monitoring purpose ? That means may I connect my production kibana to monitoring ES machine for monitoring.

Hello,

Yes, this is possible. If you follow the instructions here your Kibana will be able to search for data in your data cluster and also pull the monitoring data from the monitoring cluster:

Working well
