**Objective:- Monitor AIX Server CPU, memory and disk utilization & read some application logs using filebeat / logstash.**

Hi,  
I want to monitor the AIX server using elastic stack 7.13. I've tried using community **metrixbeat** but it doesn't support elastic 7.13.

Please provide some steps and ways to achieve the objective.

@aniket.sonavane ,

Unfortunately, AIX is currently not a supported platform. If you want to get it working, your best option would be to build it yourself, or ask for updates from community distributions.
