I have just upgraded metricbeat from version 5.6.8 to 6.2.4 and my metrics seem to be disappearing into thin air. My setup :

meticbeat ==\> Logstash beats

config below :

```auto
input {
  beats {
  codec => plain { charset => "UTF-8" }
  port => 4545
  ssl => true
  ssl_certificate => "/logstash/logstash.crt"
  ssl_key => "/logstash/logstash.key"
  }
}

output {
   if [type] == "metricsets" {
        stdout { codec => rubydebug }
   } 
 else { other outputs, etc}
}

```

If I tail the metricbeat log file on the client system it seems to be ack'ing the events, i.e {"network":{"events":8,"success":8}}}

If I remove the filter [type] == "metricsets" the events come through...any ideas?

Can you try removing this. Why did you add this?
