Kibana elasticsearch Cluster communication

Elastic Stack Kibana

Hi Team,

We are currently using 7 node elasticsearch cluster with 6.7.1 with 5 master eligible nodes.

Recently observed that whenever master changes KIbana is not losing connectivity without modifying elasticsearch ip in kibana.yml and automatically connecting to cluster .Is this change implemented in this version?

Regards,
Vivek

Kibana 6.6 introduced "sniffing" support which allows Kibana to learn about other nodes in the cluster and automatically switch when one node stops responding.

To enable this feature, you'll need to add this setting to your kibana.yml:

elasticsearch.sniffOnConnectionFault: true

Thanks Joshover...
