Hi, I have logstash + EC + kibana setup on one machine. I want to move the setup from one machine to other. I simply copied the all directories from source machine to destination machine. I thought simply copying EC directory would suffice, but looks like its not that straight forward. Could someone please point me the any pointers for migrating EC from one machine to other.

It did work. I did stupid mistake of changing the cluster name in config, but the directory name was not changed.
