I have setup metricbeat to monitor logstash and output data to elasticsearch.
I can see the index: "monitoring-logstash-7-mb-2021.01.26" with data.
On Kibana, when I click on "Stack monitoring", Kibana asks me to setup metricbeat to monitor elasticsearch, what I dont want.
How can I (simple) see logstash monitoring data on Kibana?

ok I got it!
We must setup elasticsearch monitoring in order to monitor Logstash or Kibana, this is required by the .. Kibana UI ....
