Hello!  
I have deployed Elasticsearch and kibana versions 7.13.4.  
I encountered this error:

```auto

```

Can you tell me what I should check?

It probably it taking time migrating your saved objects.... is it possible to increase your ELK timeouts to accommodate this? Give the system more time to process this over your network.

Do you have more information in your nodes / network ?

The logs indicate that Kibana's saved object migrations fail during the INIT step. In this step we make the following request to Elasticsearch: `GET /.kibana,.kibana_7.13.4?ignore_unavailable=true` and for some reason this request is reaching a timeout.

Could you try to manually test this with curl:

```auto
curl -X GET "elasticsearchUrl:port/.kibana,.kibana_7.13.4?ignore_unavailable=true"

```
