Hello All,

I have setup metricbeat in 4 servers A,B,C,D. A and B are windows servers where C and D are linux servers. In server C I have my ELasticsearch and Kibana setup installaed. When I installed metricbeat in all 4 hosts. This is the config file I used in system module.

Windows:

Above attached is the overview dashboard. When I am trying to goto individual host The utilization shows as follows

The swap and memory usage which is showing 23% and 22.9%. Not sure why the bar is showing so less.

When you go individually.

They show different values. I need to do a demo in few days. Not sure how I do with all these values showing differently. The visualization also shows pretty weirdly in the gauge. Can some one help me out. Seems like I am pretty much stuck here and unable to move forward.
