Hi, Is there a documentation about which ECS fields that I will need to populate in order to integrate with the Kibana Metrics UI to be shown in the same way as metrics coming from Metricbeat? I need to integrate the metrics that I have gathered from AIX, so they can be viewed through the Metrics UI as well. Thanks. ---

Managed to integrate with the Metrics Inventory UI, but clicking on "Host metrics" link resulted with "no data". ---

ECS fields are documented here: [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/ecs/current/ecs-field-reference.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/ecs/current/ecs-field-reference.html). Do you have matching documents with `host.hostname`? ---

Thanks, for the reply. I am using `host.name` as documented here [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/metrics/guide/7.7/host-metricset.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/metrics/guide/7.7/host-metricset.html). Is The host metrics UI querying based on `host.hostname` field? Thanks ---

I have populated `host.hostname` field, but the host metrics detail UI is still showing no data. These are the fields that I have populated: ![field](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/e/1/e1a9f1444c50b37a30db6601f531b7e34bf1b671.png) ---

Looks like I will need to split my events based on the following dataset: `system.cpu`, `system.memory`, `system.network`. ---
