Hi Elastic, We are using the kibana 7.2.1, we have around 200 nodes in our clusters. Recently, we found the kibana monitoring shows empty nodes ![WX20200924-070848](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/9/7/978ad981180e96adfbeab22c03415d580271efe9.png) I uploaded a screenshot, you can check that. Meanwhile we had try many solutions but none is work. This is our cluster setttings. ```auto { "persistent" : { "cluster" : { "routing" : { "allocation" : { "enable" : "all" } } }, "xpack" : { "monitoring" : { "collection" : { "enabled" : "true" } } } }, "transient" : { "search" : { "max_buckets" : "65535" }, "xpack" : { "monitoring" : { "collection" : { "enabled" : "true" } } } } } ``` Could someone gave us any suggestions? Thanks, ---

Hello, Can you please check if there are any errors in your browser console on the monitoring page? Thanks, Bhavya ---

@fanqiaoqing Are there any errors in the Kibana (or ES) terminal console? I'm assuming that one of the queries is either timing-out, failing, or hitting the "max buckets" error, in that API call. Can you please try the following queries and post the results here (be sure to replace `cluster_uuid` with yours ) ```auto # node shards query POST .monitoring-es*/_search { "size": 0, "sort": { "timestamp": { "order": "desc", "unmapped_type": "long" } }, "query": { "bool": { "filter": [ { "bool": { "should": [ { "term": { "type": "shards" } }, { "term": { "metricset.name": "shards" } } ] } }, { "term": { "cluster_uuid": "wuXG3QJKThmajyOWMx20hw" } }, { "range": { "timestamp": { "gte": "now-12h" } } } ] } }, "aggs": { "nodes": { "terms": { "field": "shard.node", "size": 10000 } } } } ``` and ```auto #node unassigned shards query POST .monitoring-es*/_search { "sort": { "timestamp": { "order": "desc", "unmapped_type": "long" } }, "query": { "bool": { "filter": [ { "bool": { "should": [ { "term": { "type": "shards" } }, { "term": { "metricset.name": "shards" } } ] } }, { "term": { "cluster_uuid": "wuXG3QJKThmajyOWMx20hw" } }, { "range": { "timestamp": { "gte": "now-12h" } } } ] } }, "aggs": { "indices": { "terms": { "field": "shard.index", "size": 10000 }, "aggs": { "state": { "filter": { "terms": { "shard.state": [ "UNASSIGNED", "INITIALIZING" ] } }, "aggs": { "primary": { "terms": { "field": "shard.primary", "size": 2 } } } } } } } } ``` Also, can you please try higher time ranges (like 24 hours ago or 48), and see if that does anything ---

I tried the two queries to get the data in past 4800, they are showed below. 1st: ![query1](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/8/e/8e39ad61e575bc9939034dd407394279f7e77537.png) 2nd ![query2](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/e/b/eb6f21887fd07eb682342fb3c5da1e311a8bf145.png) The number of characters in the query result exceeds the limit, I can only give a screenshot. and I also uploaded the screenshot of the console, ![console_error](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/e/3/e364816034307b28fa0e5fa9ca4245f5955d4f16.png) ---

Thanks Bhavya, ![console_error](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/e/3/e364816034307b28fa0e5fa9ca4245f5955d4f16.png) I took a screenshot when loading the nodes, no obvious abnormalities found. ---

@fanqiaoqing Still need a couple of things: - Check Kibana and ES terminal console logs (not the browser) to see if there are any errors there? - And, also try the 48h time-range in the UI time picker (top-right). Play around with it see if small or big timeranges have any affect ---
