We have metricbeat installed on a CentOS server, it works good during 4 hours, but after that, the service just stops and no more data is sent to ElastiSearch. We are using the same configuration and template (system) on a Windows server and the metricbeat service runs without stopping.

Is there a timeout in the config files?
