Metricbeat not using name in http monitoring

[Tasmanien]

Hi,

I'm using http monitoring on my metricbeat, so I can see it in Kibana Monitoring.
I've setup like this:

metricbeat.yml:
http.enabled: true
http.port: 5067
name: NAME-I-PICKED

beat-xpack.yml:

• module: beat
  metricsets:
  • stats
  • state
    period: 10s
    hosts: ["http://localhost:5067"]
    xpack.enabled: true

But when I open http://localhost:5067, the name is still my machine's name, not the one that I set, so my beat shows the wrong name in Kibana Monitoring page.

However, the metrics sent by metricbeat (in Kibana Metrics page) have the name "NAME-I-PICKED" as expected.

Is there something I can do to this fix?

Thanks

What is the version of the Metricbeat instance you are running?

It sounds like you might be running into this bug: https://github.com/elastic/beats/issues/18043. Nevertheless, it would be good to know which version of Metricbeat you are running, as @kvch asked.

I'm using Metricbeat 7.5.2, and it seems it's exactly the bug I'm running into.
