Hi Mario,

Thank you for the reply. I have documented the issue and the solution in the following thread:

> [@Independant monitoring cluster](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/independant-monitoring-cluster/167444):
>
> Unable to create a separate cluster for Monitoring the Elastic stack. I have tried configuring it via both MetricBeat as well as HTTP exporters, but I do not see the monitoring information for my production cluster. All I see is the monitoring stats for the monitoring cluster itself. I am running the trial license on the monitoring cluster, and basic on the production cluster.

Cheer!
