`It appears you are using "Legacy Collection" for Stack Monitoring. This method of monitoring will no longer be supported in the next major release`
I am using metricbeat and filebeat for monitoring our cluster Why it is showing this message

In Kibana dev tools, can you issue this request and return the results?
`GET _cat/indices/.monitoring-*`

I read the documentation and follow the [procedure](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/configuring-metricbeat.html) but some nodes are not monitored i have 8 node cluster 3 master node 3 data node and 2 coordinate nodes.Only coordinate nodes and one master node out of three is monitoring. Data node and 2 master are not monitored.The metricbeat is working fine in each node of elasticsearch and they pointing coordinate nodes

Thanks @Aniket_Pant!
The presence of `.monitoring-{stackProduct}-7-2021*` indices indicate there is legacy monitoring happening. Based on the screenshots, my guess is you have _both_ collection methods used at the same time.
Verify you have properly disabled legacy monitoring collection. For example, please ensure you have properly set cluster settings for Elasticsearch monitoring via step 8 in [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/configuring-metricbeat.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/configuring-metricbeat.html)

This particular code looks back 12 hours: [https://github.com/elastic/kibana/blob/master/x-pack/plugins/monitoring/server/routes/api/v1/elasticsearch\_settings/check/internal\_monitoring.ts#L28](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/blob/master/x-pack/plugins/monitoring/server/routes/api/v1/elasticsearch_settings/check/internal_monitoring.ts#L28) so you'll need to wait until 12h to stop seeing those.
