I am using ELK 7.9. I have installed and confirmed working fine Winlogbeat, Packetbeat and Auditbeat. But regarding Heartbeat, apparently is working fine, as is communicating with Elasticsearch, but is the only beat that is not creating the it's own index as expected (heartbeat-*). Because of this I cannot use Discovery with Heartbeat, because index is not available. Other queries related cannot be done either.
Legacy Index Template heartbeat-7.9.0-* is created
Under Index Management is created heartbeat-7.9.0-[date]-000001
Under Index Pattern is missing heartbeat-*
Under Discovery is missing heartbeat-*
I have ran heartbeat setup several times.
The above issue was also exposed and discussed here, by DanRoscigno, but I did not see the solution. Maybe I missed.
Maybe this is related to another issue I am seeing with heartbeat. Running heartbeat setup should probably be setting up the index pattern heartbeat-* . Instead, it is setting up the index pattern UptimeIndexPattern which does not seem to work with anything other than the Uptime UI (for example, you cannot use it in Discover or Lens).
Hi @ManuelF can you please clarify if you mean heartbeat isn't creating heartbeat-* index pattern or do you mean heartbeat isn't publishing data?
If you want to see heartbeat data in Discover, you can yourself create an index pattern using kibana if data is being published. Also you can use Uptime app to visualize heartbeat data.
Thank you for answering. Heartbeat is sending data to Elasticsearch that is only available from Uptime UI, but the index heartbeat-* is not being created and I would like to used like in the past I used to.
