Hi.  
I'm using docker with a 3 nodes cluster with ES. I try to add kibana in docker.yml, but I cannot make it run.

**cluster state:**  
{  
"name" : "elasticsearch-1",  
"cluster\_name" : "docker-cluster",  
"cluster\_uuid" : "kb1NHdbrRteGe0H5YPX2OA",  
"version" : {  
"number" : "7.7.0",  
"build\_flavor" : "default",  
"build\_type" : "docker",  
"build\_hash" : "81a1e9eda8e6183f5237786246f6dced26a10eaf",  
"build\_date" : "2020-05-12T02:01:37.602180Z",  
"build\_snapshot" : false,  
"lucene\_version" : "8.5.1",  
"minimum\_wire\_compatibility\_version" : "6.8.0",  
"minimum\_index\_compatibility\_version" : "6.0.0-beta1"  
},  
"tagline" : "You Know, for Search"  
}
