First off Logstash is not on the cluster it is a seperate vm, (Windows)  
After installing x-pack for monitoring I get an error spamming my console window,  
spamming th logs is this,  
[logstash.licensechecker.licensereader] Running health check to see if an Elasticsearch connection is working {: **healthcheck\_url** =\>[http://localhost:9200/](http://localhost:9200/), :path=\>"/"}  
[2018-01-16T20:24:02,813][WARN][logstash.licensechecker.licensereader] UNEXPECTED POOL ERROR {:e=\>#\<LogStash::Outputs::ElasticSearch::HttpClient::Pool::NoConnectionAvailableError: No Available connections\>}  
But the is no setting for heathcheck url that I can find and localhost won't work of course.

Isn't this the same as [Can’t start logstash after x-pack installation](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/can-t-start-logstash-after-x-pack-installation/115353/8)?
