I have newly installed cluster with elasticsearch and kibana over version 8.17.6. When enabling self-monitoring over it, it creates .monitoring-es-7* indexes instead of .monitoring-es-8-mb indexes.
Tried reinstalling and deleting indexes post turning off monitoring, but it reappears when monitoring is enabled.
Hello @amrit_singh
Welcome back!!
As you have enabled self-monitoring it writes in .monitoring-es-7*
If you are using Metricbeat-based monitoring, the .monitoring-es-8-mb index is created instead. The -mb suffix indicates that the data is collected using Metricbeat.
I have tried to enable self-monitoring in 9.0.2 & same type is created .monitoring-es-7*
