Hello,
I have upgraded my elk cluster from 7.17 to 8.10, everything is fine but metricbeat seem's unable to insert new data :
(status=403): {"type":"security\_exception","reason":"action [indices:admin/mapping/auto\_put] is unauthorized for user [remote\_monitoring\_user] with effective roles [remote\_monitoring\_agent,remote\_monitoring\_collector], this action is granted by the index privileges [auto\_configure,manage,write,all]"}, dropping event!"
I can not change the remote\_monitoring\_user because this one is locked, same for the roles.
I have been true the metricbeat upgrade process but no luck.
Any idea ?
Regard's
Claude
